Back in the day, would impound the rigs that went really fast, like so many of mine, they not only arrested you, they would take the axles off the tractors and put it on a train back to your home state so you could deal with the costs there. I made a point of staying far away from there because I was fast runner and could not afford the cost of getting busted for speeding there.
