Been there quite a few times. Never had any issues. Never saw any rollovers there either.

It's a shame that news sources outside of the USA do a much better job of reporting news stories relevant to US consumers then any major US news sources do. The Daily Mail is far and away a better news source then anything we have in the US. If you want honest reporting of US stories that matter, "go" to the UK and use the Daily Mail.

yeah just more sensationalized reporting for a public that doesn't know any better. if you're paying attention anything in that area is a non-issue. the traffic is a bigger problem than the ramp design

reporting on an interchange section that has documented 10 truck roll-overs in 18 months is hardly "sensationalism reporting". I know of at least 10 people who don't think the situation is over-hyped.

There is a reason that Atlanta is known as "Spaghetti Junction". Look at an aerial view of the interstates there one time. Looks like a plate of spaghetti. Here in Helena we have one intersection that everyone calls "Malfunction Junction".

plenty of roads have lousy turns and angles
old 22 in Easton Pa years ago was grooved to hold onto the road
sounds like just more bs to take the responsibility off the driver
for driving reasonable
