Yep there were stretches along the turnpike that were 5 miles of 65 then 5 miles of 50 repeating for 40 miles, and they were resurfacing at least a foot deep. Brother said he didn't think he remembered so much contruction or it actually needing it on the turnpike. On the way back there were a lot of the new Highway Patrol Chargers parked at the beginning of the construction zones being worked with all their lights on. Besides the lights they had the HPO flag on the door.
Believe it or not with my cruise set on 78, I was passed very infrequently and passed many, including a lot of trucks. Maybe it was all the construction 65 zones
My driving must have not been too bad, Brother Tom kept falling asleep. Or maybe that is a destressing habit he has learned from letting his wife drive?
