NYC to Memphis is a 1,096 mile haul (Yahoo); at least a 16 hour trip.

These Arab terrorists seem to get pulled over for speeding a lot. At 80 MPH, that would be less than 14 hours.

Anyway, even if he didn't arrive in Memphis until 2 or 4 AM, say, on the 12th, it could still have been reported that he left NYC for Memphis on 9/11.

If, on the other hand, he left NYC at some time like 6 AM on 9/11, that would also be interesting.

Bah. I've done 1,000 miles in 13 hrs solo. You can go 100 on the Interstate in Tennessee in the middle of the night (esp. if you're heading South - the opposite of the drug routes) with no problem.
