THE ROAD IS RACIST!!

[freedumb2003]

Sorta perfunctory...

[driftless2]

I don’t know if the road is racist, but parts of it sure need improving. One part in California was really bumpy, although the scenery was great. One of the best sections of the old road is from Kingman,Az. to Flagstaff. My wife and I traveled that section a few years ago, and it it’s tremendous. My wife loved all the old Burma Shave signs that I’d been telling her about for ten years. She grew up in England and never saw them. She didn’t come to this country until the signs were gone.

Well, that settles it.
We’ll have to either block off the road,
or have a quota system where whites can enter the road only after an acceptable number of minorities have used it for the day.

I suppose that we taxpayers had to pay for this damnably stupid study. Why don’t these colleges use taxpayer money to study why 3/4 of the money send to D.C. to give to the poor, never makes it to the “poor” family?

What a bunch of asshats.

Since “blacks” are only 12% of the population, I predict that if we studied Rt.66 long enough, we’d find that only 12% of the people using this highway are “black.” And you know what that means? 88% of the people using Rt. 66 are not black. I smell racism here!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Always wanted one.

[spookie]

it was very dangeros in 1942 when my father drove us from Chicago to Los Angeles. The number of cars hat lost control and went over the many miles of cliffs going through the rockies

[listenhillary]

Pretty sure the smugglers take the back roads other than route 66.

White Americans are what prevent this country from becoming a hellhole like Zimbabwe.....

[cuban leaf]

The mother road is a racist!

>>Always wanted one.<<

Milner or the car? ;)

[vetvetdoug]

With the current FBI statistics on crime, this information makes Old Route 66 one of the safest roads to travel in the US.

[Lazlo in PA]

I tell you why 97% of people on Rt 66 are white. It is because these vehicles are no good touring at highway speeds out across America.

[BigCinBigD]

But the road it’s self is black...Dosent that count for anything!!!!

[KarlInOhio]

What an immensely pointless study which never had to be done. Let's see who were the chumps who paid for it: The study by Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, the National Park Service and the American Express Foundation. So the taxpayers of New Jersey, which is quite a few states away from Route 66 and bond investors in China shoveled out a lot of the money for it. I hope they got their money's worth.

Is the author of the study now going to analyze drivers along all the streets in the country named after Martin Luther King?

They're primitive but cool.
