As part of my ever growing web page I have created this list.  If you
know of any dates please let me know.

---
This chart is designed to show the general attitude of states towed speed
limits.  It will get sorted by the 65 mph adoption dates however until
I get some dates it will be sorted by the old daytime Speed Limit.

This list is far from complete.  If you know of any info to help fill in
the chart please e-mail me at kevina@clark.net; it would be most
appreciated.
