It's 70 during the day and 65 at night....so not too far off from your state

I ain't proud of this fact, but...this aligns with what I've heard...

In Texas, the speed limit along I-10 from Kerr County to El Paso County is 80 mph (130 km/h), the highest in the nation. However, the night time maximum speed limit remains 65 mph (105 km/h).

that is correct, wich is the recomended speed limit on the autobahn (sp?) and i love it! texas is allowed to have the limit at 85 but choose not to! personally i dont normally drive that fast but great when going cross country.

p.s. i live in san antonio and it takes appr. 8 HOURS to drive to el paso at 80 mph; how many states can most of you drive through in 8 hrs?
