So you drove around for 5+ hours just dragging a stuck wheel along the pavement? Were you really bad in a past life or something?




It was kind of punishing, that's for sure. How it worked was every half mile the trailer would lock a wheel for just over a second with some water spaying right in front of it and the transducer would convert the force into a friction value. I had mixed feelings about the job really, it was pretty maddening because of all the driving, especially in areas where there wasn't a damn thing to look at but soybeans, cotton and peanuts but I had the most freedom to do it how I wished I ever had in my life.

I don't do it anymore, in some ways I miss it, some ways I don't

I-70 from Salina to Denver could make a same man kill himself



This is my nomination. The speed limit is only like 70 during this stretch and there's nothing there. I got a ticket driving 10mph over in this zone. Nicest cop I ever dealt with though. Once you get into Colorado the speed limit increases, making me think Kansas side is just intended to be a speed trap.

I-49 North of 220 heading to Arkansas is brutal.

Iowa....anywhere. Not only because it's boring, but it smells like hog poo and chicken poo, then hog poo, and more chicken poo...the entire state.

I-70 from Topeka to Denver is the worst, most boring drive you will ever find.

I57 from outside St Louis to Chicago

57 Chicago to Paducah (last 40 miles are on 24) is the worst

75 from Dalton to I-10
94 Westward from Minneapolis
20 from Tuscaloosa to Atlanta (especially east of B'ham)
