80+ is reckless in VA and there was a Trooper who passed me to pull over a Suburban and the Suburban wasn't doing 80 and that was on 288. $500 fine, 4 points, and court-attorney costs-fees (for reckless conviction). The Trooper had one car stopped and stopped the second car about a mile later. The wife chose her route and paid $1.65 in tolls. I chose my route and paid no tolls.

She drove my Insight once when her car was in the shop and averaged 56 MPG. My average was 68 MPG.

It's just a comparison of two choices of routes. No real hypermiling of any kind, just a road trip. We had a deadline time to get there but no deadline on the return trip.
