Hwy 130 speed limit drop

[Jay Bondesen]

Maybe my math is rusty but the twenty miles from Pahoa to Hilo based only on speed would take twenty-one minutes at fifty-five and twenty-six minutes at forty-five. Both of those are faster that we usually take. I'm not sure if it will reduce accidents, that requires getting rid of bad drivers, but changing the speed limit on short trips shouldn't have a huge time impact. I recall an older thread on this subject..
