A few years ago I was on a trip up the I-5 in California's central valley. I was on one of the straight, flat, and boring sections cruising at about 110mph in the Pooch. In the rear view mirror I see something large and white, closing from miles back. As it got closer it I saw that it was a Mercedes M-class kinda van looking SUV.
The guy driving it had to have had both feet on the gas pedal as he was going about 125. He slowed when he came up next to me and I could see his wife in the passenger seat hitting him as he was driving. I could just guess that she was yelling at him for taking that lumbering blob to such a speed. When he saw that I was laughing at him he finally slowed down and started driving his own vehicle.
