Is there a worse interstate than the part of I-59 that’s in Alabama?

Evidently Alabama has been neglecting its interstates for years. I traveled on I-59/I-20 in Alabama on my way to Tennessee in April, and that was by far the worst part of the trip. Georgia, Mississippi, & Louisiana all maintain their segments of I-59 much better than Alabama does.

It’s horrible; very rough and tons of large potholes throughout the entire segment of I-59 that’s in Alabama.

I-10 in Mississippi sucks right now in the construction zone. Can't wait for that to be over.

The part from the Mississippi line to Bham is turrible. Didn't used to be that way but they let it get bad. They are starting to repair it, but it has been slow going.

Yeah, it’s pretty sad when crossing the state line into Mississippi is a huge upgrade and relief on the road quality.

I can not see how anything can be worse than I-35 between Dallas and Austin.

We have a winner, but I'd extend the badness north to the Oklahoma line.

Also one of the worst.

I-35 gets downright civilized north of OKC.
