Fast forward, as things are beginning to open up and traffic is increasing, it is chaos. Those that got used to the empty roadways are now dealing with traffic again and aren't happy about it.
May I add that I find a direct correlation between people driving alone wearing masks and clueless driving. I think the mask might cut the air supply to the brain.
Be safe out there.

Oh it's crazy out there. There is a section of 2 lane highway on my way to work I've nicknamed "the new england autobahn" because there are very few cops on it. With sections of ledge and rock on either side, there are hardly any spots for them to sit and do radar. If I'm running late, I'll do 85-90. Although usually I'll just set the cruise at 80. Today I was running a bit late, and people were blowing past me like I was standing still.
