    Then you get the other places where they drop the dock plate before you even pop the brakes.

    I like those places.

    We pass through there but I don't know of any regular customers in OR. I have spent 2 nights in Medford though, it was 2 nights too many.

    So this is happening right now on southbound I-85. Apparently there is a four-car pileup about two or three miles ahead. I have already been sitting here stationary for over 20 minutes.

    In those situations im always thankful to be the one stuck in the back up rather than the people involved in the accident.

    Glad I missed that when I rolled through a couple hours ago. I did see a smashed up car behind the construction barrier and wondered what they had hit.

    Is that you at that tiny pilot on 74 near monroe?.

    Yup.


    When the traffic started moving after my 25-minute break there on the freeway, I passed by a car that was literally on its side. It was on the northbound side, though, so I'm still unclear on why the southbound lane was at a 25-minute+ standstill.

    No, that's some other dude. I couldn't find parking at either the Pilot or the BP down the road, so I'm actually parked on-site here at the Publix.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.
