I know that there have been a few comments on this already but I want to elaborate here.

- This was a compromise that was sought for in 2011, and there was some tremendous work done to get to this compromise
- unfortunately it didn't make it all the way through both the Senate and the house

This was the first sign that both sides of the speed limit debate could be willing to come to a compromise. Hopefully in the future this can be revisited. I know the speed limit will likely never completely disappear, but I believe a higher level of compromise will at some point be achieved.
