Based on the quality and level of maintenance of the average car on the road in the US....I'd not want the speed limit to be much higher. I think 80-85 in the open areas would be optimal.....but thats me.

In pretty much all areas going 40+ over, especially in heavy traffic, is a sure and solid pass to your local jail.....and they'd probably take your license away as well.
