funny story!!!
Hey Guys,
I had a funny experience the other day, so I thought I would share it with everyone...
I was driving down the Tollway going home from work, doing about 80. As I came up on a toll booth area, I moved into the left lane for the EZ Tag...(this way I don't have to slow down!!!). I noticed an F150 in the middle lane coming up on me pretty quickly, so I started accelerating (not wanting him to cut me off, of course)
About the time he got even with me, I looked down, and saw I was doing 95, about the time the speed limiter kicked in and the truck started cutting in and out... (I hadn't taken it that fast before, so it kinda freeked me out at first.)
I noticed he wasn't going past me, and as I looked over, I noticed that his speed limiter had kicked in too.. (Obviously, he didn't know it was there, either). We looked at each other and started laughing... But I was determined that he wasn't going to pass, so I stayed on it till he had to slow down...
Just thought this was kinda humorous....

WOW ...that's fast...I have an I-PASS..no stopping at toll booths either..but no way can we go that fast near a toll booth. Sometimes people in Chicago don't notice that they don't have an I-PASS until the last minute and then they tend to wander across several lanes....not something you want to deal with at the speeds that you mentioned..while I have reached the speed limiter once or twice, I wasn't confident at that speed to look around at those around me....more power to ya (pun intended)
