Did you perhaps mean “72km away”? If you did mean miles, that’s some very fast driving.

  According to Google the exact driving route is 72.6 miles, it is along several motorways.

    There are motorways where people (safely) drive 175km/hr in the UK?

      I used to hitch rides in the UK. The number of travelling salesmen who drive continuously at over 90 miles/hr freaked me out (lorry drivers didn't speed nearly as much. They have tachometers) So whilst this is the upper edge, from personal experience I can believe it.

        > They have tachometers ... Heavy Goods Vehicles are also legally required to be ECU speed limited to 90 kph (56 mph) as well - which is pretty soul-crushing if you ever have to drive one.

      On my motorbike, I'd comfortably do 95 to 100 mph on the motorway. But you're asking for trouble if you push it to 120, which is what you'd need at least to reliably average 114 mph. Most cars don't travel above 90mph. I'd say that's the 98th percentile speed, with 100mph somewhere near 99.5 percentile - ie one in 200 cars going faster. North Wales is a particularly poor choice of place to speed (notorious amongst bikers for harsh enforcement), but that's probably with a focus on rural roads.
