Why is it, there are patches of pavement with no rumble strips after they were there for miles, then on the same highway they reappear? Also, do they intentionally put a dip in the shoulder from the highway? It’s very noticeable when your truck jerks to the side

I assume you mean the strip of asphalt on the shoulder close to highway lane, which alerts you if you drift, right ?

A lot of areas are removing them.
Complaints from people living nearby of the noise. And I don’t blame them. -
Here is depends on the county, some have them some don't.

They need to get rid of all of them. Along with safety forks, knives and scissors and also the “do not place foot here” stickers on lawnmowers.

Just be on the look out for no shoulder, big drop offs, etc. A high % of single vehicle accidents are caused simply by slipping off the edge of the Interstate. Alabama comes to mind.

I try to keep the rubber inside the lines in the worn areas, if I'm in the tire tracks of everyone else in front of me they already picked up or blew away any metallic surprises, rumble strips and edges is where you pickup tire modifications
