A hundred miles in the US, you’re in another state; in Europe you’re in another country; in the UK you’re in the sea.

You can never get more than 70 miles from coastal waters in the UK.

Yes, but you can easily travel a hundred miles or more in one direction if you are going north to south (or vice versa) without ending up in the water.
