make good time

“I will wait here for my band. We’ll force march most of the way, don’t worry. The Guerrilla Shrews won’t be far behind you. We’ll make good time in this cool night air.”

The traffic is very calm and I make good time.

“You make good time traveling at night,” came the reply.

The morning shimmers with fallen rain, but despite the mud on the road, we make good time.

In dry weather, most cars can manage the gravel loop known as Hell’s Backbone between the town of Boulder near the monument’s northern border and Escalante, 30 miles to the south, but don’t expect to make good time no matter what you’re driving.
