I sure wouldn't depend on that "ten they give you." Human reflexes aren't up to 85 mph anyway even under perfect conditions.

I'll remember that next time I watch a Nascar race.

That is Barbara Streisand.

When the interstates were designed, they were designed to be safe at 110 mph in automobiles that were available in 1950.

Today, we have automobiles that are much improved with safety equipment.

The real problem is that it is way to easy to get and retain a drivers license in the U.S.

Reflexes have almost nothing to do with it. Judgement and training is a lot more important!

Must not have met the non-lethargic.

If you follow at safe distances, and it's a suitable road (of which many interstates are), 85 is easily handleable.

Try telling 3/4 of the OTR truckers that.
