Do you honestly think that if SB-27 does in fact get voted down by the NH House that the SL issue will be dead and gone?
After years of NO LIMITS this debate has degenerated to asking for a 10 mph increase on one relativity small area of the lake. And you are not going to get even that. Polls show support for speed limits in the 80 to 90 percent range.

Speed limits are here to stay. The next change will be to make them State-wide.

After being defeated three times in a row, you will have a hard time getting any politicians to put their name on another anti-speed limit bill.

I'm sorry if this sounds smug. But the anti-SL movement is dead, dead, dead.
