I love those speedpass things too! MD just added them, but the drivers there haven't clued in yet that you can drive through the tolls at 70 mph without any problem. Us Virginianers will have to do some training.

Gilly: I used to be a UPS driver and know what you mean about the governor thing. If I remember right, my truck was also governed, but there was almost never a time when I needed to drive that fast. The routes were so well designed that it was rairly necessary.

One thing I always liked best about the truck was the view of young ladies in their cars driving by!!

Another UPS driver buddy of mine got flashed by a gal once.

"Everyone loves the UPS Guy!!"
