“I Can’t Drive 55” was the lead single and first track from Sammy Hagar’s eighth studio album VOA in 1984. Perpetuated by a very successful music video, it became a concert staple that continued throughout Hagar’s tours as a member of Van Halen. The song is a reference to the National Maximum Speed Law in the United States, that originally set speed limits at 55 miles per hour (89 km/h).

NBC Sports commissioned a new version of the song in 2001 to reflect the increase to 65 miles an hour across the country. NBC Sports used the song for the Budwiser Pole Award presentations on NBC and TNT. The networks used the song from 2001 to 2003.
