Lets be safe out there this holiday everyone!
Just made a 750 mile drive today and am sitting in Amarillo Tx, with another 600 or so in front of me tomorrow. Trying to make it for my high school reunion this weekend and needed to get out and drive for a while.
What I wanted to say in this post was that the cops and Hiway Patrol are out in force in every state I have driven through so far. At least one officer with a radar gun every 50-100 miles and they are looking for speeders.
My Valentine One saved my rear everytime and its worth its weight in gold, but considering that I run 5-7 mph over the limit doubt that they would pull me over anyway. Every car that I did see that had been stopped on our side had passed me going at least 15-25 mph over the limit.
Keep your head on a swivel and radar detector turned on if you are making any long drives this holiday weekend! Hope everyone has a good time!

PS they better not cancel the Indy Formula One race this Sunday. Am still pissed at Michelin over that one...
