Driving back to college from trips to the movies in Pomona CA, in my
new BN2 in 1956, on what is now I-10 and was then called 'the
freeway', on several occasions I hit a speedometer 100 mph. Top up
and side curtains in place at midnight on winter nights. It felt
like there was a bit more but that was enough for me. Speedometer was
accurate at 70 mph according to the CHP who told me (at another time
and place) if I wanted to drive fast to do it on the freeway heading
east. But that was long ago in a distant galaxy.
