Re: how much freeway driving?

You drove 1200 miles on Hwy 41? When an interstate was available? You probably added a day of time and expense each way to your trip.
Interstates are always safer than other highways because all the traffic is going the same direction at roughly the same speed. If you are in the far right land no one will bother you. No one wants to hit you, wouldn't make any sense.
I live near Hwy 41 in Georgia and it is pretty busy even out in the country. Six cars an hour???? Maybe at 3am, but during the day a car a minute is much more like it.
To go slower through towns on a dangerous highway makes no sense when an interstate is available.
Each to his own - have at it. I'll be there waiting on you.
