It was pointed out that these roads also can accommodate LSVs and hence should be kept at 35 for this purpose. I disagree with this completely and argue that this is more of a reason to raise the limit to 45. By doing so, it would eliminate the LSVs from being on these roads. Because LSVs have a maximum speed of 25, if they are on a road where cars are going 35, they create an unsafe condition (see the posts above about disparity in speed is the real cause for unsafe driving, not speed per se.)
