I thought I'd left mine on the motorway until I went back to a particular car wash about a month later. He said he had forgotten to replace them and I hadn't noticed!!!
Mine are OK at 90, not sure about 91 though!

It would depend on so many variables, strength of magnets, magnetism in the door, vortex caused by wing mirror, friction of outer surface against relative wind.......and on and on. The only reliable way is to "Suck it and see". Choose a road with no Cameras, no witnesses and no hiding Police cars when you do your test as 90mph is frowned on! |
