Should the government set the same top speed for trucks in Rhode Island and Wyoming? How does it make any sense for FMCSA to over ride what the states feel is a safe speed limit?

States set posted speed limits for what they feel is safe on their roads and highways and I am questioning why FMCSA should get involved. The state sets these limits and it is up to the state to enforce their speed limit. For example if Texas does not think that the top speed for trucks should be 85 MPH then the state needs to change the signs. Enforce the speed limits we have on cars and trucks alike. Why over ride what states have determined is their safe speed?
