You really need to drive defensively here. I've had lots of close calls where speeding cars zig zag across four lanes of freeway traffic thinking they're going to make better time by spending time in each lane (we do not award prizes in this category), so be prepared to jam on your brakes or speed up to get out of the way. We have a lot of folks that are unlicensed and uninsured, so if you are planning to drive here with a rental car (hire car?) please make sure you are adequately insured should one of these folks run into you.
