Law Allowing Increased Highway Speed Limit on Governor Scott’s Desk

Last week the Florida House of Representatives adopted and passed Florida Senate Bill 392 (2014).  This bill, if signed into law by Governor Scott, would allow the speed limit on certain highways in Florida to be increased to 75 mph.  Florida would join a small group of states with speed limits in excess of 70 mph.  It is uncertain whether Governor Scott will veto the bill.  We previously posted about this proposed new law, emphasizing the increased dangers of driving at higher rates of speed.  Please slow down to help prevent and lessen the incidence of personal injury and wrongful death resulting from a car accident.
