    I thought so at First, but the sign says "exit" just above the "J," so I don't know.

    I just cant comprehend how someone does this. Especially with a truck like a volvo and the visibility they have out the windshield. It down right frightens the crap out of me when I see a driver cant even get it on a scale. How the hell does he maintain lane control with skills as poor as this. Take note all you steering wheel holders..... THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE !!!
