If it means you want to double the speed limit for a long time, maybe Even then, highway isn't so much the issue, it's aggressive low-speed driving with lots of repeated accel/decel cycles that really runs the oil temps up. And even then, you won't limp-mode the car on the street, I don't think anyone has reported that yet. You'll just potentially wear out your oil and your engine faster.
Oil Temp Survey

Actually, in the oil temp survey thread, we did find a lot of respondents claiming they hit limp mode with only street driving... scroll down the thread linked above and look at the table... hope it's clear
