What is the maximum speed limit on an interstate highway for passenger vehicles?

50 mph
65 mph
80 mph
55 mph

The correct answer is: 80 mph

The other options may seem surprisingly low or specific, as the maximum speed limit is generally above 55 mph and typically rounded to the nearest 5 or 10 mph. A and D seem low as they are common speed limits on residential roads or lower speed highways. B may seem plausible as many highways have a speed limit of 65 mph, but this is not the maximum, and it is important to be aware of the specific speed limit on interstate highways.
