They just have long, open roads. Also, the 80mph is only during the day, it goes down for night driving. Honestly, those stretches of interstate are nice to drive on.
That used to be the case 15+ years ago, but is not true now.
I mean, I was there close to 10 years ago and it was true then.
Stopped being a thing in 2011.

Well, that's really weird... I didn't even start being in that area until 2011.
