Interstates in Wyoming
According to the local news tonight, speed limits in selected areas in Wyoming are being increased...to 80 MPH. Interstates affected are I-25 from just north of Cheyenne north to Buffalo, I-90 from the SD state line to Buffalo, I-80 from Cheyenne to the NE state line, and I-80 in the southwest part of Wyoming.
I mention this not to encourage speeding, but to be aware that those smaller cars, trucks, and SUVs will now be going faster...legally. And of course you know that, if the speed limit is 80, then traffic is some areas will likely be moving at 85-90mph. For those of us in motor homes or towing trailers and going significantly slower, just something to be aware of, that some of those dots in the rear view mirrors will catch up with you even faster now.
Of course, that Prevost towing the Beemer mentioned in another post here, will probably enjoy the challenge of driving through Wyoming!
