    They are not allowed going west on 82 because of a 16-mile downgrade but it is an uphill climb going east and it is legal to run if you are going east,but not west. I still would never run it again in a truck.

    I would have to say U.S. (Bloody) 98 between Pensacola,FL, & Panama City Beach would have to be one of the most dangerous stretches of highway I have ever seen. In fact, I saw a REAL bad wreck in Navarre last Thursday where the lifeflight helecopter landed right in the middle of the highway. By the way PanhandlePat, where do you live on the Florida Panhandle? I live in Gulf Breeze.

    #1 for me is heavy fog, not matter where you are. You can go from little visibility one minute, to not being able to see the front of your truck. It is a very hard situation to avoid as well.

    I-64 in the KY is always fun at night, Bambi and her relatives love watching the Big trucks zip by.
