To demonstrate the inadequacy of America's speed limit laws, the
National Motorists Association is asking everyone to obey these laws
- well, just for a day. On April 25th, NMA will stage a Civil
Obedience Day, where groups of motorists will actually drive at 55
mph on roads still posted with that limit, to show that under-posted
limits hinder smooth, safe and efficient traffic flow. NMA, the only
significant organization representing the rights of the motorist,
plans their demonstration to publicize the need for speed limit
reform. For more information, watch for publicity in your area or call
NMA at 608/849-6000.
