They were from somewhere in NY. They were about 45 min from home. Maybe went out to see friends or family.

There’s a very pretty backroad drive (at least in fall) if you go from Salem to niantic areas

Objectively the correct answer. Near the reservoir has some great hills to go down. Love 20 up there
I'd throw in 41, 128 out in the northwest, and 318 over the Saville at the reservoir.
67 and 63 are also bangers

Litchfield county has a lot of amazing routes which you can ad alot of great stops into. Back roads to the shore are some solid options also

Today I realized I also drove a loop, but not on purpose. I drove from Shelton through Monroe, Oxford, Seymour, and Derby, and back to Shelton. I missed a left turn. Feeling unsatisfied, I drove again after having lunch in Naugatuck. I drove through Middlebury and Watertown, and I finally found Taft School. I like to eat out alone (I’m a single 35F), so I like to take mental notes of restaurants or diners along the way.

Make sure to stop at the George Washington tavern if it’s not on your list already, food is great!

Thank you for this suggestion! I just looked up Washington Depot and bookmarked a few restaurants to visit.

I love the drive from new Milford to Washington depot. I’m pretty sure it would continue through to Thomaston as well. It’s along route 109. Very hilly but with some beautiful views

When I had a bike I would go up and down Route 7 specifically Route 4 through Torrington > Route 7 south to Kent > 341 through Warren > 202 through Litchfield.
My other go to was north on Route 8 > Route 20 all the way up to Hartland around the reservoir > 179 > 219 area's.

The fleeing driver isn’t going to be in any trouble because the trooper can’t chase him and therefore can’t get close enough to make a visual identification of him.

Here you go
Edit:
Shoot. It wouldn’t post the results page. Here is another link, choose the state but skip the county or city, hit run and it will give you the results
MIT says it updates its pages once a year during the first quarter, so maybe by the end of the month
