    Um, just a note from a semi-impartial observer...
    Idol lives in Canadia and I can speak from personal experience that driving across the middle of that country makes driving Texas/Kansas, etc. seem like a jaunt to Taco Bell.
    Plus, up there you get the added bonus of the Northern Lights, so night driving (my personal preference) is waaay more interesting.

    I once drove from Toronto to Thunder Bay and for a 8 hour stretch never saw another car.

    Of course it was mostly at night and I was asleep half the time so I might have missed something.
    Fortunately I was awake during the time the large animal bolted out in front of me and I managed to avoid it .Thank God for adrenalin coupled with poor driving skills.

    Btw I'm not sure but it might have been a Sasquatch.It was sort of dark so I'm only assuming here.

    Anyway I rarely drive long distances simply to get from point A to point B as fast as I possibly can so I don't need to break any laws.
    Also if you want to get all silly I've always thought that speed limits should be by subject to driving conditions since driving 120kph at night or in a rainstorm or in heavy traffic is obviously a lot different than driving on a sunny day on an open stretch of highway.

    You mean there's worse than a vast expanse of vast nothingness? Or was there scenery, just more mileage (kilometerage)

    Youtube took it down because you could see the top of your wife's head while she was blowing me. It was flagged as adult content.

    That would be funnier if there was even the tiniest possibility of rejectOfAllah attracting a woman.
