Western Mass is like a different >>state. > >Yeah, we ought to sell it to New York :-) :-) > hey, hey, that's where i grew up! :) but, anyway, speaking of western mass, and cops, and speeding... has anyone noticed that people drive faster in the 55 mph zone on the pike, than in the 65 mph zone ? i swear people actually SLOW down when they hit the 65 mph zone. what's going on here? (or do none of you travel beyond exit 10 on the pike? :)) and the drivers can be annoying. after exit 9, the pike becomes 2 lanes, and once i was doing 70-75 in the left lane, passing, and had to slow down becuz someone was doing 60-65 in the left lane. remember, this is a 65mph zone! he would not move! and there were too many cars on the right for me to pass. he stayed there for almost 5 miles, i think PURPOSELY pissing me off. luckily, after the 5 miles, my exit came up. speed trap hint: about 1.5 miles after exit 10 (when the limit goes from 65 to 55, eastbound), there are almost always cops waiting on the right, in one of those little restricted off ramp thingies. beware! also, i think mass staties are better than CT staties. i got pulled over for 65 in CT (on 91. stupid situation, and a WHOLE other story), but i've never been stopped in mass. i even went flying by a speed trap at 75 (in a 65 zone), and was ignored. happy driving! -------------------^--^--^---------------------------------------> Donato Miranda groove is everywhere. turn it up. feel it. daytime------> donato@applix.com ...uunet!applix!dmiranda nite|weekend-> damir@wpi.wpi.edu +++++++++++++++++++cybertribe node: (L0T-veXerj1) ]]]]]]]]] vibe-------------------------------------------------co0l basE--->
