    You must have gone through during a rare day when there was no road construction in Nebraska. We've decided to simply go through SD instead of Iowa; it tacks on more time, but it's better than sitting in the back seat of the Iowa Trooper's car while he talks about how Colorado's tinting laws vs Iowa's blahblahlah.

    Just got home. I averaged about 8 or 9 over through Nebraska. Should have gotten pulled over in Omaha, but for some reason didn't. I was clearly going 10 over and the cop stared right at me... I slowed down right away, but he could have pulled me over if he wanted. I had a close call on 76 by sterling too, but I slowed down in time. Either way, they had plenty of reasons to pull me over and probably throw me in jail if they wanted, but maybe it was the sweet stickers on the back window that saved me.
