People Already Drive 90 MPH in Texas

iWon News - Nevada candidate touts speedy fix to budget crisis: "One Nevada gubernatorial hopeful sees a speedy fix to Nevada's budget crisis. Nonpartisan candidate Eugene 'Gino' DiSimone believes people would pay for the privilege to drive up to 90 mph on designated highways - and fill the state's depleted coffers."

Hat tip to Jeff Meyerson.

But if you could make people pay for the "privilege" of doing so...
yeah, right. Gino is dreaming.

On the other hand if you made a highway a toll road and designated it as a "speed limit fee zone" - sort of like the Autobahn - then you'd get every Lamborghini, Maserati, Ferari and Konigsegg in North American heading for Nevada.
