come to OZ and try our roads, there are plenty over here that you would swear are not major highways, I dont have any pics but will try to explain. here goes, a major highway that roadtrians travell on (not the only one by any means) - it is absolutly impossible for two trucks travelling in opposite directions (eg one going north and one going south) to fit on the road at the same time, both trucks have to put about 18 inch of their truck over into the dirt to get past, and this has to be done at about 25 to 35 mph or the trailers of the two trucks will swing over and hit each other causing a accident. sound like fun , come on over and drive out raodtrains, it is stimulating and the adrenalin runs allmost allday until you have been behind the wheel for months/years. The unwritten rule is that the truck with more trailers has right of way or a loaded truck has right of way over a empty truck, the good drivers will spot a loaded truck from a distance and slow right down and move over for the other truck, most of the time there is no need to get on the UHF but now and then a inexperienced driver needs to be told. some roads have wheel tracks that deep that a standard car bottoms out. yes major highway!

I thought parts of I-12 in LA were bad until I drove this.
Good Lord was that a horrible couple miles. So glad it's been repaved.
I remember parts of Donner Pass being especially bumpy. -
Yes, the westernmost few miles of NJ I-78 were pathetic for years. I always thought the signs said
