NM State Road 47... more drunks per mile than a Boston pub crawl, except they're going 75 miles an hour in a 1972 Dodge Power Wagon.
i-70 is the highest pass of interstates.
where’d they get “one of”?
Think of the Carbon footprint.
California sure dominates this list. But I would think at least one highway in Pennsylvania would’ve made it considering that we consistently win the honor of having the nation’s worst roads. We are also the roadkill capital of the nation.
I-70 is not scary. Try US6 over the pass in the Winter instead.
I-5 in the San Joaquin valley is on the list because of the fog in the winter months but what makes it such a pain to drive and sometimes scary because of all the trucks on it and the big differential in speeds.
Wait a minute!...I’m not scary at all, just keep your speed down on the curves!
I-80 from Reno to Sacramento on a snowy day - tight turns and narrow lanes + crazy Californians and illegals.
Drive through Camden, NJ sometime. Talk about scary.
You want a scary road?...Just drive down any Seattle hill when its 25 degrees with black ice trying to get to work:

Looks like a list of America’s most beautiful highways in the Western United States.
You want scary?
- Try Cleveland’s deadman’s curve during rush hour.
- Or driving home through the South Bronx and the burning cars on I95 at 10 pm.
- Or Boston’s Big Dig tunnels. ‘Nuff said.
- Or I4 thru Orlando with its mix of elderly, confused tourists and uninsured illegals
- The daunting Springfield interchange on the south side of Washington DC
Mount Evans Road (Colorado 103)South past the Ranger station. Snoqualmie Pass during a blinding rain..
I-75 through Detroit without getting shot
Actually US 20 from West Yellowstone, MT to Ashton, ID in the winter is among my least favorite drives.
89a from Sedona to Flagstaff is a hoot of a ride. 70 west of Denver also.
but the missed the scariest road I can recall ever having been on ...
The Beartooth highway, coming out of Red Lodge to the northeast entrance to Yellowstone was about a pretty interesting ride.
Schnebley Hill Road, from Route 17 south of Flagstaff, down into Sedona is a pretty interesting ride as well.

For me there are:
I-75 through Downtown Detroit on a steaming Summer evening
I-5 between Los Angeles and San Francisco the night before Thanksgiving
I-40 across the entire state of New Mexico because of the generally terrible condition of the pavement
Deadman’s Curve on Columbia Parkway in Cincinnati
I-75 through the Smokey Mountains when the fog is low and thick
ANYWHERE in Boston
I’d agree that Angeles Crest is one of the most dangerous, having traveled it on a daily basis for 10 years. Right now it is closed due to landslides.
The road from St. Ignatius, Montana to the Canadian border. Definitely #1, especially on a windy night.
