If you’re doing less than 140mph they flash you to go faster or get out the way.
Getting a lift back with people that were half-cut going about 120 upwards and flashing people out the way was bad, until we were flashed to move over by the next guy. That was Abbruzzo, where the roads aren’t great.

Haha - I agree. It always appeared the speed limit in Italy was the maximum speed for whatever you were driving. The twisty autostrade up north, with all the tunnels through the mountains are nuts. The short on ramps too!

Northern Italy has some amazing roads. Everything there really, fast dual carriageways climbing mountains and tiny country roads. Maybe the lakes are a bit busy for traffic but right from the tunnels at the border with France/Monaco there's some really exciting roads.
Only thing that freaked me out about Italy is you'll be doing 130mph and someone will sit on your bumper because they want to do 160.
