LOOK EVERYONE A BIG STRAPPER SWIFT DRIVER IT IS JUST ANOTHER HILL THAT IS BECAUSE YOU BOTH ARE SPEEDING THAT IS WHY

With the modern alignment of I-24 and with Jake Brakes, Monteagle Mountain is really no big deal. That arbitrary speed limit and the agressive enforcement actually makes the mountain LESS SAFE. Just like you did, find the RIGHT speed where you are not using your brakes, and let 'er roll.

When I went down that mountain, and I did several times. I was in 8th gear and jake in high by the time I entered the highway. Didnt matter the weight, the truck stayed at 35mph the whole time.
Thank you for giving safety so much consideration. However drivers and motorists alike in the eastern half of the U.S. are under the impression that Monteagle is some big deal. Until you've driven a truck to Portland you haven't seen anything.
