In the freeway case, I saw my opening in the lineup of cars, came across
each of them at about 80 knots at 50' agl or so and gave them a chance to
slow up, which they did. I then slowed up to 50 to hit my opening, but
didn't count on the clapped-out Datsun in the right lane going uphill with
six kids in the back at (generously) 30 mpg.



And the rest of the story ....is?

Was the Datsun Green? :-)

Owned a used 1984 Datsun/Nissan Stanza - most of the badging on the car had
both names, since they were switching corporate identities at the time.
Always thought that was weird. It was my winter beater ..."Datsun/Nissan."
