I drove I-40 through Oklahoma heading to Arizona in late December. When I saw 80 mph it was like wow I can legally go this fast?

I've never been to this part of Texas, but...



I remember hearing a comedian several years back talking about getting pulled over for speeding in some midwest state. The guy was freaking out, and then the cop told him, "you can pay now." The guy asked "how much," and the cop told him "$5". He said he had the urge to hand him a $20 and tell him he was paying ahead for speeding through the rest of the state.

Most of the driving that I do is on roads where the SL is 75mph. I usually set me cruise at 83mph, although out of curiosity, I did once set it (briefly) at 127, and it worked.
