One of my dad's cats used to commute with him the 90 miles or so down from the mountains (on sabbatical) once a week. She was fine with it, just napped on the dash where she could look out, or the back window. But 15 minutes from the destination, she'd be all up in your face, yelling at you. She'd put her front paws on your collarbones and just
push,
yelling with catfood breath right at your chin.
She knew how long it was supposed to take. God help us if we got caught in a missile roadblock, she'd start yelling at 1 hour 45.
I don't let my current cats loose because...well, they'd cause an accident.
Kuma also does the same thing. He lies down once we are going past about 40 and stands up when we slow down again.
Great, Kat, spoil my lame physics joke with the facts.
But, no, really, that's quite interesting - they feel the difference in speed, it seems, from your post, from the car's responses? That's more than I could do before learning to drive and having to feel the actual difference and the time to change gears.
Today was a good day for several friends: one gave birth to a healthy baby girl, one was cleared in an investigation concerning a car accident she was involved in, one finished unpacking from her move. I hope the good vibes will be shared.
Also...do I
really
have to take a damned vision and knowledge test to get my CA license? Really? I've had my license since 1991, for chrissake.
Feh.
DMV's across the nation can bite me.

I had to. CA was the only state I've moved to that required the knowledge test.

NC does too. Not that either of you is moving here, of course.

IIRC O level biology, the inner ear can sense stuff like acceleration and deceleration (at least I think that's where they keep the organs).

They are not worthy.
Best of luck on your journey, Kristin. Daniel and Windsparrow have set the bar high, so we'll be expecting rest stop wifi updates.
I had to take the written test to get my La DL. That was because I waited too long between letting my california license expire and getting a louisiana one, though. I forget why I did that. I had a reason, probably something to do with insurance and not having a car. Oh, and losing my california license and not having a copy of my birth certificate. I had lots of reasons!

MN requires knowledge and vision. Bastiges.
