There's more cops here per mile than there were on Ohio interestates during the 55 mph nonsense. Really. Everybody knows it. They drive really slow. I'm the fast one at 7 over. Every now and then there's someone faster - they're usually from out of state and don't know any better. Dave Head |

I might consider recording a 45 minute drive I occasionally make on a US route in both VA and WV. I just need to figure out how to mount the camera and how to speed up playback of a 5 fps file. |

Going across ohio keeping the van at 70-75mph was about the speed of traffic. That's 5-30 over in IL. The speed limit was about 70. |
