Dude, Jersey barriers!! They are those slightly slanted, sometimes removable, large concrete "guard rails" in between lanes of traffic, or around construction zones, etc. Dunno where they got the name, but maybe you guys in NJ call them "fences" or somethin? hehe. I agree with you on the lane choice. One thing my MSF instructor told me about riding on the highway was, if you're not ready to get up and run with the big dogs in the left lane, don't even get on the highway. NOT being an obstacle is key.
