{"replyToPid":0,"replyTo":"","text":"Winds at 40mph I might pull in to a safe haven. Depends on how heavy the load is. Since I’m in a freight shaker, I’m probably doing 50-55 in that high of wind. Definitely not 60+\n\nBut at the end of the day if I’m impeding other traffic more than making efficient progress I’ll pull off."}
