Last week 17 cars were damaged by a pot hole on I-40 in Sequoyah County, Oklahoma. Damage to most vehicles was so bad they had to be towed away.
SC sounds just about the same as Oklahoma. I don’t know how they set their priorities. I do know the roads in this country are mostly falling apart on every level. Talk and raise taxes are all I see getting done.
Like SC, when you cross the state line into Oklahoma it is like entering one long speed bump. The sign at the state line says “Discover the excellence.” When we see that we say, “Good luck.” Pathetic.
The only slight consolation is to know we are not alone here. I can say the very same thing for roads in Illinois and Indiana from my trip there last spring.
It is amazing how well Missouri does with all their roads including county roads. Even Arkansas does a reasonable job with their roads. Texas is like entering a new world. When you cross the Red River everything is better. Don’t states ever look around and benchmark their performance against best in class and then do something about their own pitiful performance?
Has it improved any ?
