I think you missed something

I read a nice article about Hana on cnn.com. However, although he implies it, he doesn't really delve into the fact that while Hana itself is lovely...the Hana highway will make you ill. Take a dramamine or some ginger pills before you go, and remember to use the whole road.

The reason that the "whizzers" whiz by is that they're relieved to finally be driving on a straight road!

(And when you go there, you've got to see the Hasegawa General Store.)
