{Whenever a dad (or any man, for that matter) climbs behind the wheel, he becomes hopelessly engaged in a game of Beat the Clock. Whether it's a cross-country journey or a hop across town, Dad's immediate and all-consuming goal is to make "good time." "Good time" is a subjective term that usually means "faster than last time."}
A dad will go to any lengths to make good time. That includes resricting family rest stop breaks to two minutes, exceeding speed limits by upward of twenty miles per hour, and purchasing exorbitantly expensive radar detectors to avoid getting stopped by the highway patrol. (It's not the speeding ticket Dad fears, its the accompanying ten-minute delay.)
