    Your right and it's sad. Apparently no one can drive without cruise anymore. You would think the truck in the right lane would ease off the pedal enough to let the truck in the hammer lane pass but no. Either it's to much trouble to cut the cruise off or common sense wasn't taught in the training mill. And while I'm in the process of being a complete a hole, could you guys who don't know how to cut your cruise off please stop flashing your high beams when I do pass. I just love being blinded when I look in the mirror. A simple off and on of the lights will do and is appreciated.

    I remember the conference call when they bumped us down to 60. They said that team freight was considered more expedited and that customers were charged more for it. Safety had nothing to do with it. Plus, consider how often it's been used as a recruiting tool. "Go team and get a faster truck."
     
    Waggledaddy Thanks this.

    I wonder why excessive overspeed was dropped from 70 to 68?

    No biggie in the Buckeye, just grab the hammer lane stick it in the big hole and mash that gas driver.

    Unlike just about everywhere else in the country where safety is sacrificed for percieved convenience.

    Very true. I just want to yell at guys that use the left lane foolishly. If enough do, it will eventually be ruined for everyone. It has already been ruined on the majority of the pike.

    Now if we could get the speed limit raised to 75...
