No joke on the LA trafic, I drove a bus in that town for a few years,
that was a test of nerves, although I had one friend who was never
bothered by it...he drove a semi in Mexico City for 15 years, LA traffic
was a vacation for him.
at midnight when everyone is doing 85, you'd better too. I was driving
west on I10 at about 1:30 am one time about 25 years ago , driving the
speed limit 55. I got pulled over by the highway patrol and given a
drunk test. After passing with flying colours, the guy told me that he
had pulled my over because the only people driving the speed limit there
at that time of night were drunk! Go figure.

No. LA, saturday night at about midnight. Eastbound on I-10 from I-5 in
the crown victoria, bumper to bumper traffic almost all the way out to
SR-57, GOING 85 MPH.
Don't sneeze, don't change the radio station, don't look at a map, don't
check your mirror, don't even think. Any of these will cause an instant
fifteen car pileup since the SUV behind you is literally a foot behind you.
Seriously more nerveracking than towing a 9000 lb travel trailer down the
hill from tahoe with jersey barriers IN the lane you're trying to drive in,
on both sides of your lane.
