Okay, I must be getting older. I went up to Ottawa and back today. Up, I was loaded with all my son's Christmas stuff and his Girlfriend and her stuff. I thought 120 to 130 would be enough to keep me in the left lane most of the time, but nope, 140 was the number needed. Which was okay, I got to Ottawa sooner than planned. On the way back, I figured that going 120 would be good enough for the right lane, but it was too fast, but not fast enough for the left lane. Tried 130, had Echo's, Accents, etc. running up my tail. Tried 135, no better. I didn't want to shame the Focus Nation, so 140 was tried. Nope, 145 to 150 was the right speed for the 401. Whatever happened to 120 being too fast? I'm not complaining about going that speed, but I don't like getting speeding tickets, I'm too cheap.
