Re: 10 most dangerous roads in the world

I'm Suprised that no New Jersey highways made the list.

Re: 10 most dangerous roads in the world

That Bolivan Road looks like fun...

"If you are nuts enough to consider it, please be advised that you will be only adding to the road hazards, as it's hard to spot a cyclist on the road's hairpin curves, and your shrieks (as you fall down the abyss) will disturb the peace and quiet of the villagers nearby."

Garden State isn't so bad though, but the Turnpike, you need balls to drive there, or, no skill at all it seems.

Last couple of times I drove the NJ turnpike I was doing 80mph in the far right lane near the Trenton/Shore Points exits and the other 2 lanes of traffic were besting speeds well over 100mph and there was a lot of traffic too.

Re: 10 most dangerous roads in the world

I altmost get killed in jersey daily, I drive a glass delivery truck and it is speed limited to around 70mph and thats with a good wind behind me and a half empty truck. Now imagine all of those bumps and potholes with a truckload full of exposed glass, and pyschopaths trying to run me off the road in their kias at 90mph. I don't think they sell cars in jersey with working turn signals either.

Pikes Peak is an open public road.

unfortunately, in a few years it's planned to have the entire road tarmac'd because it's currently deemed unsafe.

Re: 10 most dangerous roads in the world

Last night I was going north on I-95 from VA to NYC & the last 45 minutes to exit 16 I was doing 90-100mph just to keep up with the pack, & I still had other cars coming up from behind flashing me to move to the right!
