    Just wondering what your least favorite stretches of road are. As far as mine goes it's anywhere on I-75 between Detroit and Cincinnati. Cincinnati construction and Toledo is brutal.

    Also any section of I-95 is also pretty terrible.

    What are yours?

    Some AL 376 or sum such. Two lanes but not wide enough for a truck.
    Turns that can’t be completed without being in the other lane.
    And some ####### decided to build a pallet mill down it

    Some of those interstates in the Los Angeles area should be high on the list but I don't go out there enough to remember which are the worst. I just remember sitting mostly in place for hours thinking that this area would be an ideal target for an enemy nuclear attack. They'd wipe out a rather large % of the worlds moron population all at once.
