Agreed, but 140 mph is going a bit far.
Re the comment about Germany, I did some work there a couple of years ago and doing 140 on parts of the autoban seems normal and indeed perfectly safe. But those roads are wider, straighter, in better condition and the freight drivers seems content to make steady progress in the slow lane, rather than making sudden moves and swerving all over the road just to go 1 mph faster than the truck in front.
