Isn't 74 a pretty normal speed to drive on a highway? (Only drove there once)

It sounds to me like he was coming off the highway and didn't notice that he was leaving into an intersection with a red traffic light, where the accident occured. Not that I'm saying it is okay for him to not have noticed it.

Surface street apparently. Maybe a 45/50/55mph zone.

Is the highway exit not a surface street?
