The last National Speed Limit law ended with World War II. Speed limits had been set by the states. Oh, I see. Probably be easiest to just not mention the speed limit, then, unless you can find Michigan's speed limit in 1953. Ain't it just a bitch to write fiction set in the past? You learn the darndest things :)
