No speed limit on CA 99? That's excessive. I-5 I could see working.

People drive equally as bad on I-5 there is just less agriculture trucks.

I can't imagine our current legislature abolishing speed limits on I-5 or CA-99, or even adding lanes to I-5. Unless they're bicycle lanes...

Who would want bike lanes on an interstate anyway?

Colorado, other western states where there is no other road.  Actually, there, they use the shoulder.

In Arizona there is no practical alternate route for cyclists other than I-17.  There is even cycling signage directing bike traffic on where to enter and exit the Interstate.

Bikes (and pedestrians) are expressly permitted on all Interstates in Oregon except in metro Portland and on the viaduct through Medford. Oregon's bicyclist manual doesn't even state that they must use the shoulder.
