Don't forget, HB162 is bad for the commercial fishing industry. They need to get to the prime fishing spots before dawn every morning. NH fishermen will suffer because the Maine, Mass fisherman do not have to obey speed laws in their states.
I just attended a Christmas Party in Seabrook, and told about 20 or so fishermen about it. They are fuming because they were not aware that this law will effect them. They will be calling their state representatives. The HB162 folks have completely left them out when the had their hearings in The Lakes Region. HB162 have sent them a very Merry Christmas.
