Not much semi traffic on the interstate. We live in SE Nebr. and I went up to York, Ne to get on I-80 and go to Lincoln. Just for the fun of it I counted the number of semi I met for a 20 mile stretch. Counted 112. Actually I think that would be over a 40 mile stretch. I was going 65 mph one way and they were going 65 mph the other way. Well, anyway, I can remember drive that road and getting boxed in with semi traffic most any time I drove that road. I mean you would get boxed in several time on a 50 mile drive. Yesterday, the biggest group of truck I saw was 5 and they were spaced apart and would not hold up anybody traveling faster. All this happened about 10-11 am. Maybe that is a slow time of day, don't know. Just my observation. Yes, and several of the flat beds only had 1/4 or 1/2 loads on them. I wonder how full the box semi were? I went 2 miles several times and counted no trucks. Are you all seeing the same in your area? |
