Most harrowing stretch of highway

North Georgia mountain country. US 19 south out of Blairsville to Dahlonega. Never, ever again! 40 miles of steep switchbacks, narrow two lane.

Didn't take me long to figure why there were no other trucks. A crotch rocket did pass me multiple times up and down the mountain. Apparently getting reps on his high speed cornering skills.

This was before my gps, relying on the atlas and my superb decision making skills to find this real cherry of a route!

 

Is the road paved? No problem.

Is the grade two digits starting with at least the numeral "2"? Then you get my attention.

 

I have had to pull a fuel tanker on that road. And your right!

 

Lovers Leap Va. US 58. Enough said.

 

S Aberdeen St. in Englewood, IL is a pretty scary ride, even when there's no snow.

 

LOL

 

Sounds like US50 coming the other way from Winchester to Parkersburg lol

Another one of those never again roads. Company routing. Even the gps was screaming don't go there. As a green driver I thought surely the company routing couldn't be wrong could it? lol

7 years later I look back at what a bad deal that was and glad at the time I was too new to know it.

 

Worst road I've been on, that was a designated truck route anyway, was US60 in WV between Charleston and Hico/US19. Hilly, tight, and lots of logging/coal trucks in a hurry. Fun fun fun. Though I78 around Hamburg PA and in NJ was a lot of fun before they fixed it in, what, 2008?

 

Any old school East coast mountain highways!! (PA, Catskill, etc...)
