Another poster, me, is saying that it's not that simple. I've certainly been comfortable enough with the level of traffic, the road width and sight lines to have bombed down that stretch more than a time or two. Yes, there are times to dial it back, but there are also times when opening it up isn't unreasonable. I realize that a less nuanced view suits your agenda a little more neatly, but it's just not so black and white.
