Post #225,037 by jb4 9/16/05 2:17:19 PM Reply	Funny thing about toll roads... ...seems that the speed limit is pure fiction. And for good reason: if you're gonna pay that much, you wanna get off of it fast! Same rules here on the Ill Tollway: Go 55 and die! jb4 shrub●bish (Am., from shrub* + rubbish, after the derisive name for America's 43 president; 2003) n. 1. a form of nonsensical political doubletalk wherein the speaker attempts to defend the indefensible by lying, obfuscation, or otherwise misstating the facts; GIBBERISH. 2. any of a collection of utterances from America's putative 43rd president. cf.* BULLSHIT
Post #225,041 by bepatient 9/16/05 2:22:34 PM Reply	Official limit is 65 Unofficial cruise speed when it is 3 or more lanes is 75 in the slow lane. What created the issue for my little "experience" was someone late in braking...it was a bit slick and they "panic braked" and lost control. From there...its sort of like watching an accident on a restrictor plate track in nascar. If you push something hard enough, it will fall over. _{Fudd's First Law of Opposition} [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]
Post #225,052 by Ashton 9/16/05 3:11:00 PM Reply	Re: Official limit is 65 I appreciate that Tpke Rulez limit one's options.. (depending on what the penalty is there - for dropping to 65 in Slow lane, when the rain squalls limit visibility to x car lengths. Do many have car guns?) So then, it's a Tpke-full of Fangios, but without remembering his Attention! reminder (most of whom dunno WTF he was). Your description suggests another argument for ABS - the less physics-ept the driver, the more that complex gadget is Worth lots more than the 18-speaker Boson multi-channel driver-distractor. While a Pro can outbrake the transistors on decent surfaces; in oil-slime, etc. it's priceless. I'm sure you know what alt. routes there are (or aren't). All I know is - if this is the way it Is on that Tpke, even with obvious weather afoot - methinks I'd opt for eschewing the Keystone Krashers that day, with any alts. at all. Luck, moi
