    The exit in question has multiple whses in the opposite direction, including a Wegmans Dist Ctr. But once you make the wrong turn, at night or in the commonly foggy conditions that prevail in that area you are screwed. If it happens as often as it does it goes from drivers completely at fault to some level of road design and DOT being at fault.
    my suggestion is to put GIANT flashing yellow lights and enormous signs with very ominious threats, Maybe like "Earth ends in 500'. Prepare to meet your Maker"

    There was another mellon crash last night (7/22-7/23) on US35 in WV. Right where the 4 lane turns back into 2 lanes and there is a couple of 30 mph curves. Rolled it passenger side down. Not sure of any injuries. They were just getting ready to roll it back upright and start trashing mellons (had a tractor trailer dump wagon standing by for the off load)

    I always examine my load before I seal & depart. Just to make sure the store number matches the BOL, and it's not splattered all over.
    This morning I pop the hatch, and what is staring at me............
