This little Louisiana bypass is great if you really can't stand New Orleans, or you're in a hurry for Texas.

I've driven back and forth to Dallas at least 50 times and that's the ONLY stretch of highway I've never gotten a ticket on.

Whenever I've got a road trip and no timeline - I usually pull it up to see what's along the way.

If you want a guaranteed ticket, come to Ohio. I have to assume it's the worst state Highway patrol - wise.

I've driven all over Pennsylvania and Ohio - they've got nothing on WVa and Maryland turnpike cops.

Maryland state troopers can kiss my arse.

Virginia has more State Troopers than they do citizens.

Everyone in Virginia has their own personal State Trooper and they had 8 left over.

Too Familiar with it driving through OH and PA

13) I-75


Always interested in this drive, for some reason, except for the stretch between Toledo and Dayton. It's very pretty going through KY an TN.

4) I-24 ("The Legend")

Route: 316 miles, Pulley's Mill, Illinois to Chattanooga, Tennessee
Traffic Rating: 2.54
If you need a challenge, I-24's "Monteagle Mountain," a 6 percent grade in Tennessee, is considered the most treacherous stretch on the interstates. Jerry Reed, underrated star of Smokey and the Bandit, wrote a song for it ("The Legend"). Johnny Cash also sang of it too: "your life is in your hands when you start down that long steep grade."


I don't know how many of y'all have drove this stretch, but it'll make that arse pucker. Beautiful though
