i think Totti knows. but what i hate with a passion is people slamming on the brakes at the slightest hint of rain, or a plastic bag blowing across the highway, or their phone ringing, a touch of fog. i drive the m5 tollway everyday and 90% of australian drivers are completely unaware of what they are doing to other people behind them.

But at first i read your post so quickly i thought your whole point of slowing down was that at 140kph more hail would hit your car then at 80, ha ha. i bet some egg head has worked out what speed causes the least amount of hail to hit your car. like whether to walk or run in the rain.
