It’s actually at the top of an on ramp about 5 miles after you get on. Passed it about 30 minutes ago.

Abandoned car or wreck?

Yep. We were in a 45 minute jam on the eastbound side caused by frickers weaving in and out of lanes.

It was odd. Didn’t look like a wreck (single car) but also an odd place to abandon and set on fire. It was only 5 or so feet from main traffic. Could have been a major engine overheat.

Or the car realized where it was and committed suicide.

Typical for a day that ends in Y. Hate that fricking bridge.

If inspection stickers actually certified that cars are in good working order we wouldn't have these hoopties exploding into fireballs.

Seems like this happens more often than it should.

Don’t know about Westbound but Eastbound between Breaux Bridge and the ABB looks like a complete abortion on my traffic app.

It’s almost like the road isn’t completely straight. It’s mind boggling.
