Most places in the US are connected by 55 mph roads. I'd be hard-pressed to get anywhere but the city center in most places I've lived if I couldn't use those roads.

Farm equipment and bikes use those roads all the time, and they go even slower, so I don't think being able to keep up with traffic is a valid concern.

Note that I said over 55, rural connection roads should still be traversable since most are 55. Basically limits them from entering the interstate highways.
