It's usually possible to evaluate the condition of large sections of road at once (since they do maintenance that way). So you don't often unexpectedly hit the washboarding at high speed. It also tends to be the case that going faster can reduce the effects of the washboarding (given a reasonable vehicle). |

offtopic: reminded about this novel - the reasonable vehicle was a truck with several tonnes of nitroglycerin https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wages_of_Fear
ontopic: anyway we'll soon be flying in quad-/octo-copters and the open low-populated spaces like Iowa will be among the most suitable areas for the initial application of those "flying cars".
