    Heck, I run 30 and I don't have to, traffic and enforcement on the toll road is unbelievable.

    I prefer running 20 to IN2 to 20, but 30 in Ohio is much nicer than 20 once you get by that eastbound coop that's open at the strangest hours.
     
    G13Tomcat and Panhandle flash Thank this.

    Hmmm I hadn't thought about that but now that you mention it .
    Used to have to run 30 in my Jim bender days when speed limit was 55 but you may have a point there .
    Noticed on Sunday morn they are starting construction from 80/94 split to the portage cashbox .

    My favorite, since I no longer go way out east, is when running from Detroit to Cleveland, I go down 75 to 280 and just past the truck stops turn left on 163 to 2, which runs into 90 west of Cleveland. Don't do much of that one, either, my friend, the devout, although divorced Catholic does. I get close in metros, and seldom see Indiana anymore.

    I dislike toll roads, but know when to take them.

    I don't mind a toll road per say if it's maintained to the highest degree but the Indiana toll road doesent fit that description.

    The aforementioned friend took it during an ice storm, 2 shakers blocking the road spreading salt, and 2 4 wheelers passing them.on the inner berm, both lost it, wrecked against the wall, and they closed it to IL right after he went through.

    We have had enough wrecks and enough tickets from running it that I just don't anymore.
     
    bzinger and G13Tomcat Thank this.
