Hmm..On a road trip to Texas a few years back, got my doors blown off 
by a tractor doin easily 90. I was in a SAAB 900 N/A doin 65. A few 
miles down the road, the tractor was in the median on it's side in a 
huge cloud of dust and debris..I slowed down to 50 while I dialed 911 
for him...

  On a recent trip through New Mexico, between Las Vegas and Raton, I 
came
 upon a trio of semis, closely grouped, that I was barely closing on at
  95-100. When I finally came close enough to decide to pass, I ended up 
at
  about 110 to finally get by them. I have no idea if they were loaded 
or not.

  Two years earlier, descending from Kingman west into California, I saw 
close
 to 100 while I was barely passing semis on that long downhill.

  Last Thanksgiving returning east from LA towing a Uhaul, I was 
repeatedly
 passed by these behemoths who were doing a good bit more than 80.
