We resemble that remark! You'd be surprised how many accidents there are on
the straight sections of our Utah hiways.  People going high speed or not &
falling asleep, not paying attention, going off the road, trying to
overcorrect, & rolling the whole deal over a bunch of times.  Happens w/ a
lot of SUV's vans, RV's etc. Good thing our vanagons don't go that fast.

Despite that, our speed limits are usually 75 mph which means everyone
except bus volks go about 80-90 mph.
