Freeways

This is another 'sitting in a moving car' shot.I wonder when will India have roads like those in Developed Countries.
Freeways do not have any traffic signals, and one you hit a freeway, you are free from traffic (the slow moving ones and the signals). I drove all the way from Schaumburg near Chicago to Champaign all alone, (Garmin GPS assisting me with the directions), in less than 3 hours. And I never had to slow anywhere in those free ways strech of almost 150 miles, ie around 250 kms. I can not imagine atleast for the time being in India, driving in cruise mode, at 70+ miles per hour continuously for more than 2 hours.
