I had a Corvette pass me once doing at least a 100 MPH. I was hoping the FHP was setting with their radar on the south end. They weren’t.

If you had a Corvette, you'd be doing a hundred on that bridge and not even feeling it --- it would be the nearest sensation to flying on a beautiful moonlit night...heck, back in the day, I had my XJS to 120 on Racetrack Road -- again, it was two lanes cutting a pasture in half back then. But when the breakaway mirrors rolled in, I allowed myself to consider what a small amount of motion would put me into the drainage ditch, and backed off...
