Well, ANYBODY can drive through the Rockies, all in broad DAYLIGHT!!!
It takes a real EXPERT to drive the Canyon with its hairpin turns, and
frequent losses of ambient light!
(I got a ride, hitchhiking, from Lytton to Boston Bar with a guy who
sped through the whole thing, never dropping below 100 MPH, and most
often having the needle BURIED! (120MPH+) -- he obviously knew what he
was doing(stock car racer) as the wheels never squealed once on any turn
(obviously he anticipated where/what the traffic was going to be since
you can see a fair distance ahead, past a few tunnels/curves. . .
