Re: driving up to ohio
I lived just south of Cleveland for several years as a youth. Give the Highway Patrol a large berth! They stopped me, at 57 mph in a 55 mph zone, while I was in a marked unit and asked me it, I was responding to a call. You are good for 6-9 over in KY

Re: driving up to ohio
made it to ohio ok, but my steering and throttle feel really stiff for some resason. other than that a pretty smooth trip, flew past an Ohio highway patrol car at 15 over but he didnt come after me. I wrote down all my mileage numbers so im gonna work out the mpg numbers later.
