There's one road here that's insane. Completely straight. 50MPH speed limit. It's a designated, oh WTF, I can't think of the name. They get Fed money for it, because it's limited to access every 1/2 mile via lights. Expressway. The block wall on the south side has too many car size patches to count. The PD has no idea WhyTF there are so many single vehicle accidents. Neighbor's daughter went @ss end into the wall. She was rear-ended a day or two before at school (high-school). He thinks maybe something tweaked or broke and finally completely failed while she was driving. She wasn't speeding. Road was clear and dry. It just spun all of the sudden.

It's in the middle of nowhere, pretty much straight as an arrow, other then slight elevation changes. Main reason I think is, people get tired from driving and fail to see the signs[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] and want to get where they are going without all the stops. I am one of them drivers[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Here lately though, I do stop more often and on occassion, I let the wife drive[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

It is one of those things we cannot control[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Yes, it is hard to see the fairness in it.

It's the same roadway MWQ drives to work. So, MWQ, be careful[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I've only driven 5 from Nees (Fresno County) to the 580 (and 580 to 80). And 120 to 80 up in Sac (not too bad as there's actually some stuff out there to look at...kinda). But yeah, 5 is a friggin wasteland.
Heading up to a jobsite east of Livingston tomorrow. Least that's on 99, but then again, there's like 5x the traffic on 99. And the rigs don't run 70+ over here.
