Nah, SH-130's median is much wider.

By the looks of it though, could probably easy hit 85 mph on that road with no traffic around.

Yeah I would sign it at 85 (hint?).

55

Correct, this is US-17 in southern Chesapeake, VA. It's a rural limited access (with some minor intersections) four lane divided highway. The 55 mph limit is painfully slow, but the city has no plans to increase it any time soon. Traffic actually moves 65-75 mph and enforcement is non-existent.

Virginia tends to sign many divided highways at 55 when they could be 60, like US 17 on the Peninsula.
