Here's how much money driving slowly actually saves
Fox News
Driving a car or truck more slowly can save money and the EPA has a calculator that tells you exactly how much based on what vehicle you drive.
Tickets given out in Montana, which had unrestricted roads at the time and opposed the law, cost just $5 and were technically for an "unnecessary waste of a natural resource," rather than considered a safety violation.
Widespread resistance to the limit saw it modified to 65 mph in the late 1980s and repealed altogether in 1995. Today, posted limits of 70-80 mph are common and you can even drive between San Antonio and Austin on SH 130 at 85 mph without having to worry about getting pulled over.
