I'm saying don't drive any faster than the RCMP's fastest horse.

I'm saying I saw no RCMP horses, but I did see OPP's powered by many horsies along the way.

I'm wondering if it was just a standard North American cop car, or an extra special "pursuit vehicle."

I'm thinking the typical Dodge cop car edition. I have to admit I did not stop to ask any of them specifics on the model.

I'm with you. Although if you're doing 100km/hr on a 400-series highway you're likely to get run over.

I'm remembering that there's a highway on Vancouver Island that's 110km/hr, but still...

I'm thinking that, yes, there are stretches of both I-5 and CA-99 where going the posted speed limit requires you to have a reflective warning triangle on the back of your vehicle.

I'm saying we had cruise set at 114-118 but that was about it, pretty much no one else was going quicker than that. It was quite annoying
