I'm actually impressed those mail trucks can go that fast. I thought they were more like glorified golf carts.
She was driving a van, not one of the of the mail trucks in the picture.
In some areas, LLVs have been supplemented or replaced with vans and minivans, including the 2008-2010 purchase of Dodge Grand Caravan and Chevrolet Uplander minivans,[15]: 12 which tend to be more comfortable for postal workers, especially in extreme climates.
It’s still pretty impressive that they could race in a minivan.
Ah, gotcha. Thanks for clarifying. The article image was what I had pictured in my mind, and I've heard those called both trucks and vans interchangeably.
Makes it much lamer sadly
