I don't travel cross country, as much as I used to. It always seemed to me, that the plains states, and less populated areas, had the more casual drivers.
It was easy to tell when coming closer to a large city, due to the increasing traffic, and speed increasing. Going through big city freeways, the speeds often driven, were around 80mph, even with a posted 55.
Sure everyone was in a hurry, but you soon realized, at this speed, in bumper to bumper traffic, there was nothing a LEO could do. There was no pulling in, or over.
I had a car in front of me, change lanes, right under the rear of an 18 wheeler. It took his right front fender almost all the way off, yet no one even slowed down.
I stay clear of these areas, when towing my FW.
