    What road is it you cannot stand?

    I-65 between Whiteland and Henryville Indiana - Northbound or Southbound. Bumpy. I am ready to give up driving after that stretch.

    The BQE (Brooklyn-Queens Expressway) in NYC is the absolute worst road I have ever driven on. There is always construction, lane closures, accidents, etc. Once took me over 5 hours to get from the Outer Bridge Crossing in NJ out to the east end of Long Island on a summer Friday night mainly due to the horror that is the BQE :biggrin_25524:

    Lately, the stretch of I-70 between Indy and the OH line, with the exception of the few miles close to 465 they've already done, is absolutely horrid.

    the road less travelled

    I used to dislike the Jersey Turnpike on the north central stretches around Elizabeth ,but it is less objectionable.

    NYC roadways have drainage set in the pavement basically built like a bridge, everywhere. Use the lane to avoid them and it helps, but still rough.

    Asphalt pavement tends to break up, there are spots on I-80 in IL where they patched it, but the road is buckled, most places mark things like that as bumps, near the westbound and eastbound rest areas west of Princeton, I try to speed up enough to stay in the left lane, and again near the exit 33 and the ethanol plant just east of that.


    I-90 west of Albert Lea, MN used to be terrible but they fix it often now.

    I-84 in eastern PA. I wear a mouthpiece so I won't break any teeth when I drive it.

    I40 Arkansas mm 193-202 construction, take US 70 around it now every time, I don't take the chance there anymore and can't forget the Cross Bronx in NYC either. Take the go around on both of those spots
