I Can't Drive Sixty-Five

     Raising the speed limit ?  Some lawmakers was to raise it to 70 on the Thruway and some Interstate including I-81.

       Remember the Dems put it at 55 and only Pataki  got it to 65....With Dems in charge for as far as the eye can see, no higher limits.

OK, someone else point it out. I’m still laughing.

Most seem to drive over 70 already without repercussions, so why make the change? Seventy is supposed to be the max limit, not a base point to go faster. They should start giving out tickets at five mph over. The state would rake in the cash.

Gotta agree with the dems on this one if they still want slow going, sorry.

The same people that want to mandate you drive an electric car to cut down on emissions are now going to let you create more emissions by driving faster.

Some historian you are Jeffrey. I believe it was Nixon (R) who put it at 55 on a federal level and Rockefeller (R) who put it at 50 on the state level. Energy crisis don't you know.

It SHOULD be at least 70 mph in many places. But it's sad the idiots added points to your license for simple fix-it tickets and other non-issues then pull something like this.

Let's make it 105.

The EPA is allowing coal-burning power plants to release more heavy metals like mercury, a powerful neurotoxin linked to brain damage.

Pesticides, Coal, Food dye.

The Insurrectionists on January 6th 2021 caused over $3 million dollars of damage to the Capitol and thanks to Trump none of that money will ever be recouped because of him Pardoning them! Therefore we the taxpayers had to pay for it and we weren’t the ones that vandalized it.

Who needs a higher speed limit when the only driving is on coffeen street. Just something to bitch about. So miserable.

Tell you what it’s amazing, once you pass the imaginary lines that form these states, and suddenly being able to go 75 mph legally, not having to wear a helmet is also plus, all while using less taxed gas!

All of the J6 participants were fined and required to make payments to "reimburse" the government for any damages. Educate yourself 5:52.
They were also blacklisted by financial institutions just like JPMorgan just admitted they did to Trump. If Trump can sue for this, I wonder if they can too?

You're the typical oblivious moronic leftard 5:52, but just use that mostly empty noggen to try to imagine what the blue states damage was to the economy and peoples lives with their useless extended shutdowns, or hey how about the cost to the same states to create sanctuary states or cities and to harbor all of the illegal entrants brandon allowed to enter during his entire term? I could go on but the most important part of this message is to tell you just how stupid you are for believing most of what you believe. TDS is a such terrible thing.

Quit being such a prude. It's perfectly safe to go 75 mph in most places on the interstates.

Well, libtards are also redirecting traffic around Syracuse on 481 adding millions of miles per year to spew emissions.

7:40 and 10:35 are both poorly educated dipshits.

Once pardoned, the January 6th insurrectionists no longer had to pay their imposed fines and could petition to have any that they did pay, reimbursed.

How do you fuckwits not know this?
