abstract="This article briefly reviews the findings of a 19-member National Research Council committee that examined the costs and benefits of the 55 mph National Maximum Speed Limit and whether the laws of individual states provided a &quot;substantial deterrent&quot; to speeding violations. The committee's basic conclusion was that, because of the &quot;substantial benefits to safety,&quot; the 55 mph National Maximum Speed Limit &quot;should be retained on almost all of the nation's highways,&quot; but the method for determining federal compliance with the law should be changed to better reflect safety priorities. A list of committee members is included.<p />",
