1974 lowered to 55 mph in response to 1973 oil crisis
till 1987 when raised to 65 (NV challenged fed law)
Nov 1995 fed law removed and back up to 75mph most rural interstates since then

They do 80 mph all over Massachusetts now. Even when it snows.

What do you mean, "back then"? This is not an old thing, the interstate highways and 80 MPH have been around for a while, since the 70's I think.
