It was a complete white out and these guys still felt invincible at 65 mph...until they tried to change lanes, take a curve, stop, or take an exit ramp. I felt like Mel Gibson in the original Mad Max...just trying to make it home, running a guantlet of insane truck drivers. There was about 1,000 miles of this:
