The only North American motorway with a European style speed limit. Most continental European countries' average speed limit is 130 KPH (81 MPH); some nations, like Poland have a speed limit of 140 KPH (87MPH) on newer stretches of motorway, &, Germany has no limit on rural stretches of the autobahn system.

Nice ride along TX-130 tollway south
2:31 that's the nickname for TX-130 tollway

This speed is near the speed of the German(West Germany when I was stationed there), Autobahn highway. Many drivers drove 100mph average speed in 1974, and some drove faster,
normally in the inside lanes. The Autobahn was built for fast speeds. I drove on the highway and kept in the right lane because I did not want to drive at 100mph plus. Many drivers run
over the speed limit on the interstates at 75 and 80mph.

There is a reason more highways don't have higher speed limits and it has nothing to do with safety. By posting a slow limit the cops know everyone will be speeding so they can go out and collect revenue anytime they want. I live in the country so I don't go on the interstate a lot. But even in the country there are many 55mph roads where that limit is far too low and should be 65mph. Hardly anyone actually drives 55mph all the time and I can tell you for sure the cops don't. They are out there doing at least 70 in the 55 zones because they are apparently above the law.

In fact, this road has the highest speed limit anywhere in the Americas (85 MPH = 137 KM/H)
Only 6 countries (that I am aware of) have higher speed limits than the Pickle Parkway.
140 KM/H or 87 MPH: Bulgaria, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Turkey
160 KM/H or 99 MPH: United Arab Emirates
Infinity: Germany (the famous Autobahn has NO SPEED LIMIT on some stretches!)

Hypothetically, I was hypothetically going a hypothetical 144 mph on a hypothetical Sunday morning hypothetically on Texas 130 back in October 2023, hypothetically. Hypothetically, it was hypothetically awesome, and hypothetically felt like I was only going a hypothetical 100 mph. Texas 130 is hypothetically a phenomenal highway for hypothetical speeding. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

Yeah that highway is so wide and new and well paved 85 mph seems likes your going 55mph. 100mph feels slow, the road is like, .. is that all you've got?
