Interstate 81 near Mile Marker 70

Wytheville, VirginiaDec 05, 20060 Comments

I’ve been driving up and down I-81 for quite a while and I always use cruise control to control my speed around 65 mph. Last Thursday, I sped up to pass an 18 wheeler and returned to right lane doing 65 mph. 2 miles later, I got pulled over for speeding. I admit that I did speed, but anyone who’s ever driven along I-81 knows how many trucks out there. Sometimes it’s much safer to pass them (or to let them pass you) than maintain the speed limit. Just a reminder to people who will travel across that region. It’s a notorious speed trap in SW Virginia.
