Not trying to be facetious but I think Germany managed to address this need by way of the autobahn.
For an East Coast perspective (namely Toronto) the speed limits here
generally are higher on some stretches at 70 to 80KM depending on where you are. Some highways are still 90 - 100km/h but a majority of people are running between 110km/h and 120km/h (sometimes 130 - 135km/h) Local streets are still 50 - 60km/h and there's really no way around that, but a majority of the time, people still pull 70km/h through them. Go any slower and you chances are people wont' be very Canadian anymore.
The best is when you are on an 8 lane highway and someone is on the far left lane and decides they need to take the exit last minute. Just like in the episode of Family Guy, this is real life in Toronto.
