Well, there was never any reason for the invective, but I've been
across the US more than a few times. Maybe the people you cited
genuinely enjoyed those trips you mentioned. I won't say they
didn't. At the least, pushing yourself is something you can say
you did. For me, trying to relax and have a decent time of it,
sightseeing or no, is just a more enjoyable choice. An inexperienced
driver, especially, shouldn't be feeling pressure to make time.
