Oh, yea, good ole interstate, I've seen a many a torn up vehicle form people
who can't drive and or are drunk. I was in Emergency service here for many
years. People normally drive 80 out here anyway, so 35 more mph is not much.
Where are you from? must be one of those folks I go by every morning in the
left lane doing 60! :)

And you're making these full-speed blasts -where-?
Being fairly new to Virginia, I just want to know so that I can stay WAY
away. I'll run fast on a track, but not on an open road. I've seen
what a poorly placed/timed animal can do to a vehicle at that kinda
speed.
