Turnpike
Freeways
Toll Roads
Starting in with the Merritt Parkway - King's Highway in N.Y. - the Penna Turnpike - they were all very fine.
The Pennsylvania Pike - a toll road had specified speeds of 65 and 70 but it seemed as tho everybody went faster than that. The Ohio Turnpike is a continuation of the Penna Pike and I understand is now open to traffic. The Oklahoma Pike is along the same lines. Every twenty five miles or so there was a Howard Johnson Restaurant or snack Bar with a large Gasolene station. They would service your car while you were feeding the inner man.
The Dilly of them all was the Los Angeles Freeway. They had four lanes going either way with limited access and Brother I never saw traffic move the way it does out there. Large Trailer Trucks would roar along at 65 and clamoring for us to move over to the right -which we did. It gets to be a disease however and it gets so that you can't go 40 and be content. Speed - Try this Los Angeles Freeway.
