Driving in the NE

oh yes, toll roads ..... bring cash and stick to big toll roads until you learn your free short cuts. route plan ahead and google the toll roads IE:

I would have them authorize a com check for you for 150.00 to start you should not be paying out of your own pocket for tolls then send in receipts and have to chase payroll down to get your money and wait a whole week thats not right

 

One other I thought of is if you run 84 thru Ct up to Ma don't let it roll too much coming down those hills. They have this nasty habit of waiting for you at the bottom.

Fortunately I've never had that blue light conversation at the bottom of the hills but know quite a few who have.

 

It ain't that bad, since I live up here, I am used to it. some advice would be to get Into a truckstop before 6PM daily, a s many are small stops and parking is nearly impossible at times. Some roads are not tolled, but the guberner of RI wants to start tolling big trucks only and it's a one time toll, how they will manage one time, I cannot say, supposed to be about $30 when that time comes however. Mass Pike is a toll as well. You may hear or see on some maps (or even some GPS) that in CT they call I-95 the "turnpike" but it is not tolled. I do not know the current toll of the George Washington Bridge (I-95), or the Tappen Zee bridge (I-278).

since you will be on a dedicated account, I'd suggest that you have one
usual way in/out:, and then a back up plan in place to get around.

 

Yeah, I-84 is not a very nice road in the winter, and it certainly made for fun times hauling pups.

 

Yep traffic is a real pain out here i would suggest if you schedule it to come through at night its a little easier.

 

No problem you will be fine take your time just like I said before if you have a question find a local city driver like myself most of us are always willing to lend a hand
