Overdrive magazine has consistently rated PA roads among the top ten worst in the nation. When are you guys going to get it?

Throwing the taxpayers money into another rathole isn’t the answer. Despite the glowing list, you know and I know that money is going to the third world savages in Philly and Pittsburgh.

Looking forward to the day when I can vote with my feet.

You beat me to it so I just posted #3.

Gee, just less than half goes to the Socialist cesspools that now pretty much control Pa politics. Great job.

But you know as well as I do that if they actually tried to reform Philly's and Pittsburgh's mass transit, there would be stories about how some elderly widow with three clubbed feet can't get to the welfare office from her doorstep. People would whine about how it would affect the poooooooooooor (and women and minorities).

I'm from Maryland, by the way, but I take an interest in road-related issues in the US. Good luck on your pending exodus from PA.

I-80 in Pennsylania may be 311 miles long, but it seems much longer because of all the twists and turns.

A long time ago there was an article in The New Yorker magazine (in the pre-Tina Brown days when it was sometimes readable), based on the author's experiences riding around the country in 18-wheelers. I remember that a truckdriver in Pennsylvania told him they had the worst roads of anywhere.
