I guess I’m just spoiled. For all of Washington Parish’s faults we have good roads sans Bogalusa. And even in Bogalusa it’s not that bad.

All the ones I have been on suck. The absolute worst is anywhere In Natchitoches Parish.

That's every East-West street in Lakeview.

That whole area coming into laffy is fricked up.
My brother lives in Broussard, roads aren’t fricked up over by his house.

60000 of state roads

How many have driven on the part of LA 10 that is still a gravel road?

35K. Work for Acadian ambulance and you’ll see south LA up to Alec. Every nook and cranny you didnt want to see.
Probably been hunting or fishing in every part of the state except the west side north of sulphur up to Shreveport.
Did you do it before the advent of GPS and Online Mapping?
Imagine how fun that was traversing the state in a hurry to pick up someone in a remote location having a heart attack using an outdated map and road signs that are sometimes non existant.

Negative bro. Not even close.
Think of all the subdivisions and neighborhoods. I''ve traveled all over the state in many small towns and backroads, and I probably haven't driven on 50 percent of the roads in my own area.
