Truckers, I have a question. In the 48 contiguous states, which one has the worst maintained interstate highways?

Indiana
angrydeuce@reddit
Dude I aint even a trucker and I knew the answer was Indiana lol
Routine_Bill9859@reddit
Same. I also don’t even live in Indiana either.
angrydeuce@reddit
me neither but ive driven from the upper midwest to ohio and the rest of northeast more times than I can count lol
Indiana was always a whore not only because the roads are so ratfucked but the goddamn troopers will snag your ass for like 2 fucking miles over. Only state in the union where I've set my cruise below the speed limit and just sat in the right lane the whole way cuz those fucks are bored.
RoseKlingel@reddit
Duuude what instrument did you play? Got any songs recorded?
angrydeuce@reddit
Anything with strings...primary lead guitar but the bassist and I would swap depending on the song and how intricate the baseline was...he was good at the chug chug chug but when it got too far beyond that hed get overwhelmed lol
Like I said we were pretty shitty lol...mostly covers though we did have some originals and recorded a demo but went nowhere. Band broke up in the early 00s with no hard feelings, clearly wasnt happening for us, like most lol
Really nothing to share unfortunately...we disbanded before YouTube and the permanence of the internet really took off so whatever I still have is locked on physical media or physical photos in random photo albums wives and girlfriends kept which unfortunately I also have no access to anymore.
Was fun though :)
RoseKlingel@reddit
Dang! I was hoping you could convert some analog media to digital or something. I love to hear people's original songs. Garage band vibes are killer to me. Still hoping you write the Blockbuster stories book. I try not to ask too frequently.
Maybe you will rerecord your songs someday!
angrydeuce@reddit
I've thought about it, especially lately with how much cheaper and easier it is to record music at home with even a crappy computer. I got inspired about a year or so ago and spent a few hundred bucks on some new pedals and some PC interface stuff intending to do so but you know how it goes, kids, family stuff lol. Tale as old as time...
Still have all my guitars though, in their road cases lined up like soldiers ready to do battle. Just need to find the time lol
RoseKlingel@reddit
I hope you find the time!! Sounds like you still got the fire. :)
1129514@reddit (OP)
My trip today I was right at 69 the whole time. They love hiding all over the place.
last_somewhere@reddit
I'm not even in the same hemisphere and i know it's Indiana.
HerburtThePervert@reddit
It’s eye opening going from Indiana into Ohio. Like going from riding a horse over moon craters to a smooth paradise.
1129514@reddit (OP)
Same with Indiana to Illinois. A breath of fresh air.
december151791@reddit
Illinois roads suck but they feel immaculate after a couple of hours driving on Indiana roads
thtamthrfckr@reddit
Same with Michigan, they’re miles above what they used to be but man they’re like runway smooth compared to Indiana
Correct_Writer_3410@reddit
Hit or miss with Michigan imo. I-69/anything near Lansing or Port Huron are the worst federally maintained roads I have ever driven a truck on. Genuinely worse than I 70 in Indy.
thtamthrfckr@reddit
69 just had a total replacement, quite nice now but yes previously I would’ve said worse than anything in Indiana even 70. Detroit was like that too for quite a bit but huge overhauls everywhere changed that. Lansing interchange and bypass all just got redone now as well, things are looking way better, so back to Indiana #1
Correct_Writer_3410@reddit
I drove the length of it in Michigan a couple months ago and it certainly had not been totally replaced, worst road ever
thtamthrfckr@reddit
Oh sorry, entirely from 94 to Lansing, beyond that yeah, I haven’t driven that in a while
Correct_Writer_3410@reddit
I 94 seems fine iirc and I guess most people here mostly have just been on that or I 75
BeyondTheMindd@reddit
Whaaat, some of my favorite roads have been through Illinois. Theres times where it doesn't even feel real, just me alone on some big open back road, big fields of perfectly cut deep green grass, i feel like im driving through some kind of computer wallpaper
december151791@reddit
I see you've never been on I-55 from Joliet to Springfield, I-94 south of Chicago, or I-290.
timbocf@reddit

Medic5050@reddit
The best section of every Indiana road, is that one part of every road about six inches before the border into the neighboring states.
BayBreezy17@reddit
Michigan: “Hold my coney dog.”
Aggravating-Ideal-56@reddit
Indiana and Michigan are both the worst. I’d say Michigan has more than Indiana now these days since Indiana has fixed a lot of theirs. Michigan started to fix theirs but they have a lot more to go than Indiana!
Aggravating-Ideal-56@reddit
Nah Michigan takes the cake these days. Indiana has been fixing theirs. 70 is really their only bad interstate these days which is almost fixed. Michigan started fixing theirs too, but all their interstates are horrible still
RoseKlingel@reddit

z247x@reddit
I-70 between Indianapolis and the Ohio border is the worst road in America. I drove it in a Freightliner...

This was my first thought and haven’t drove through it in years

azurasstarship@reddit
The funny thing is that even though they have the worst maintained roads in the country, they actually have really nice and well maintained rest areas. Some of the nicest I've seen.
wukillabee2744@reddit
Walmart drivers have been complaining to INDOT for quite sometime now. In the winter when the roads get bad & your truck is constantly bouncing up & down is a nightmare waiting to happen. Also the only state my hood latches have popped off & it happened 2x on 2 separate occasions
wukillabee2744@reddit
Indiana & it's not even close
Crazy-Stop2808@reddit
Colorado pretty bad too I think we used to technically be #3 worst

Michigan
WolvTheHero@reddit
North of Flint and Michigan isn’t too bad. Indiana on the other hand…
homucifer666@reddit
I shoot up and down US131 and back and forth across I-94 pretty often, and the only part that sucks is the area around Grand Rapids. Easily take that over most of Indiana. Indianapolis might actually improve after the apocalypse.
kneemeister1@reddit
Michigan has a split personality, as in only really good or really bad, esp in South East Michigan. Lots of highways are just years and years of asphalt over 1950 era 10x10 concrete blocks, they need to plow it all up and start over on many of them. Last time they stripped the asphalt off US127 south of Hudson, the old concrete had the original white center lines, not even yellow.
adamjg2@reddit
I think most don’t know the roads are as bad in Michigan because you usually aren’t just passing through. You have to have a reason to be driving through it
fordry@reddit
Man, living in the NW, it's always kinda amazing going elsewhere and experiencing the downgrade in road quality. Despite a few issue spots here and there, on the whole, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana all have pretty good roads overall.
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
Indiana, New Mexico, and Arizona are pretty awful.
HighwayStar71@reddit
You know it's bad when you're happy that you've crossed the border from New Mexico into Colorado.
fordry@reddit
Go drive the offramp and onramp westbound on 70 at the Limon, CO truck stops...
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
Or NM into TX, it goes from grooves, gravel, and potholes to giant sheets of smooth concrete
ohno-abear@reddit
It's even worse between Texas and Oklahoma. Oklahoma highways always have me thinking "you people seriously have no state budgets huh."
henry3415@reddit
Def New Mexico for me.
DukeBradford2@reddit
Colorado is 2nd place imo
cheesecake-gnome@reddit
My top two were Indiana and New Mexico. Nothing else compares
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
AZ on -I-40, and if you need to go into Las Vegas off 40 onto US93 its probably one of the worst roads in the United States. US95 in AZ is shit too, but nothing compares to 93.
Yerboogieman@reddit
I was going to say Indiana and I5 in California is pretty bad, then I remembered Highway 93.
Fuck 93.
GoldenRetreiverMom@reddit
Right? Hurry up with I-11 and get it fixed. You can’t even drive straight because you are avoiding all the potholes
DaSaw@reddit
You talking about that road that's smooth on top but like a temperature warped metal ribbon underneath?
Terrible-Strategy127@reddit
The 93? No. It's terrible on the top and also underneath. And they just keep patching it. Poorly and cheaply. And not letting it set before opening the lane again. So it gets ruined and the patch ends up worse and more dangerous than the road was before.
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
Its definitely the worst stretch of roadway I can think of. The left lane is a little smoother, but every mile you land a pothole the size of a pony
Terrible-Strategy127@reddit
100%.
Hopefully this weird random sections of road they're redoing expands to the entire thing, especially north of the 40.
I do ride the left lane when possible, and the fog line when not. Misses most of them. Usually.
xoutlawtrucker@reddit
No, its like the surface of the moon. Craters, grooves, potholes, gravel kicking up everywhere. Its that orange or red pavement they use out west, but its like 50 years old and never repaired once (so it seems) like a forgotten abandoned roadway you shouldn't be on, and its around 93 miles from 40 to Vegas
GoldenRetreiverMom@reddit
Not a truck driver but being from AZ I second this 😣
KawasakiFever223@reddit
I10 is pretty bad depending on which part ur in. Oklahoma has some shitty routes also Indiana too Chicago area is nothing but construction
hispanic-unknown1@reddit
NJ
AlarmingAd5142@reddit
Used to think new Mexico but Indiana for sure
RectumRavager69@reddit
Indiana is a given but there's also some shitty roads in Oklahoma, 69 in particular is fucking horrible at sections of it and I don't think they can build the weed dispensaries fast enough to get the tax revenue to fix it. Louisiana the roads can get rough in certain sections but it's really the shitty overall quality of the infrastructure that worries me the most, there's several major bridges that every time I go over them I just mentally accept that I might be swimming soon. Georgia sucks at times and just sucks in general. West Virginia and parts of Tennessee are fuckin terrifying and you had better taken your pretrip seriously that morning. NYC has some absolute dogshit stretches of road. Jersey is a goddamn madhouse and you had better be able to drive if you go up there. Pennsylvania has some shithouse stretches of road too.
Also, Texas. I've had more close calls with idiot motorists on 30 and 35 than any other highway in the country with 40 and 95 being next in line in Tennessee and the entire northeast which I collectively think of as satans sphincter which is about 400 miles in any direction from the heart of NYC. Can't forget about North Carolina either. Really they're all pretty terrible. Except Ohio, it's actually quite nice as long as you're not near Cleveland or Akron.
whitecollarpizzaman@reddit
I can’t believe you named all the states you did and you still throw a shade on North Carolina, the only rough roads in North Carolina are the ones actively under construction. I’ll take reasonable criticism about my home state, but our main highways are the smoothest I have ever driven, both internationally and domestically.
RectumRavager69@reddit
Yeah go take a drive through the industrial side of Charlotte and get back to me.
whitecollarpizzaman@reddit
Those are not main roads. Question was about interstates.
RectumRavager69@reddit
How do you think you get to the industrial part of Charlotte?
whitecollarpizzaman@reddit
Either on well maintained I 485, well maintained I 77, or well maintained I 85. Unless you’re coming from the South Carolina side, then I could see how your perspective is skewed.
Higby_2128@reddit
I agree with most of what you said, except North Carolina. I live in South Carolina and could tell you blindfolded when we crossed the state line just by how much smoother the ride gets lol. I mean 40 sucks though the construction due to the hurricane. But like other than that the highways are decent. It’s the little side quest roads that suck.
seeyourchrist@reddit
Also Arizona cause fuck and Oklahoma.
seneeb@reddit
Indiana overall is horrible.
The worst 100 feet tho I'd have to say is an area of 80wb in Illinois between 74 and 88. There's a spot that I swear you'll get airborne if you're going over 30mph
RudeOrSarcasticPt2@reddit
Shhh, IDOT will hear you and barricade seven miles of road to fix that one 'volunteer speed bump.' 😆
seneeb@reddit
Uffff I'd be ok with it. Last time I went that way I had forgotten about it (I usually go the southern route) it yeeted my fridge out of the seatbelt!
Awww fucki gotta go that way today shit
RudeOrSarcasticPt2@reddit
Well, good luck.
Timmy98789@reddit
Louisiana and anything outside of that is a rookie who hasn't traveled.
ExpedientDemise@reddit
Louisiana overpasses and bridges don't line up with the highway. And there are a lot of bridges in Louisiana. You hit a giant dip going onto the bridge and another coming off. It's like the road crew and the bridge crew don't talk to each other. "We're going to make this one 2 inches higher than the other one."
Tapcofucked@reddit
Yeah I have to agree.

Environmental-Pear40@reddit
I've been to both, a lot. I think Indiana is worse. Mostly because it's shit for longer. Louisiana is more concentrated shit and mostly in the major cities. Some stretches outside the cities aren't that bad.
PowerComfortable9493@reddit
Arkansas
Largofarburn@reddit
Indiana is the worst from what I hear. Never been myself.
SC is the worst i e been to. There are so bad it actually bounced my glad hand off my dolly going over a bridge. And it’s not uncommon at all to see the potholes so deep that rebar is sticking up.
whitecollarpizzaman@reddit
I think they’re asking about Interstates specifically, I would tend to agree with you, though, however, I don’t think I’ve seen anything as bad as what you’re describing on an interstate, maybe a secondary highway. Credit where credit is due to my southern neighbor though, they are trying really hard to reverse years of neglect.
Largofarburn@reddit
77 and 26 are mainly what I drive there. 85 has at least gotten better after like a decade of work.
Where I had my glad hand pop off was a state road near Myrtle beach though. Idr the number off the top of my head, but it’s newer. They made the sections on the long bridges insanely bouncy for some reason. It’s miserable in a single axle with empties.

On Hwy 61n in Iowa, there is a stretch between Eldridge and Dewitt where the right lane will rattle your teeth out of your head. It's not a major route, I mean it's between Davenport and Dewitt, and there ain't much there.
CaptainGibbs96@reddit
I-70 Indiana
Indiana in general though. Besides the condition of the road itself, its not uncommon in winter to go from one state with completely cleared roads, in to Indiana where it looks like they've never heard of a plow or salt, and out the other end to another state with completely cleared roads. I think the worst I've seen was in 2023 when the ice was bad and the plows did such a shit job, it was like driving over every pothole that ever existed. If you want good martini, put the ingredients in a cup and drive through Indiana. You'll have a James Bond approved drink.
la_zarzamora@reddit
For me I think it's a tie between i70 in Indiana and i40 in Arizona (west of Kingman as you're getting close to California).
droptozro@reddit
I'm regional in Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania so that's my main experience. WV and PA both have some bad areas, but WV will tear my truck up on some bumps on 77 and 50 in some places. That's mainly where I'm at though so no experience with the rest.
My only gripe with Ohio is that I-70 needs to be 3 lanes all the way across by now, it's too busy during daylight hours.
Capn_T_Driver@reddit
Aside from Indiana, Louisiana, Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas have some really rough road sections, be they US highway or interstate.
tngangstagranny@reddit
Arkansas used to be the worst road ever...and it lasted all the way across the state!
That-one-guy12@reddit
Yes
Aggravating-Ideal-56@reddit
Indiana and Michigan are both the worst. I’d say Michigan has more bad roads than Indiana these days though since Indiana has fixed a lot of theirs. Michigan started to fix theirs, but they have a lot more to go than Indiana!
Virtchoo@reddit
Joliet in Illinois used to get an honorable mention, but the construction project there is really turning that around. There is no worse road to drive on than 70 in Indiana. They are currently working on it, but my lord that’s the only stretch of road that I would actually put air in my air seat.
Fox_Tango_@reddit
The bridges crossing over the Des Plaines River in Joliet are still pretty bad tho.
ironeagle2006@reddit
That fucking thing has been bad since 1970 it's finally getting replaced next year. It's been rated the worst bridge in the USA structural wise since 1996. How it's still standing is a miracle.
1129514@reddit (OP)
It seemed like all of Illinois interstates were under construction a few years ago. They're amazing now.
70 through Indiana, I didn't see any construction happening on the west side of the state except for one spot where they're putting a bridge over the highway.

I've always heard Michigan but i really don't think it's that bad. I run i94 weekly and aside from a rough spot here and there it's really pretty smooth sailing.
robexib@reddit
Three-way tie between Indiana, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, and I can at least excuse WV because they legitimately don't have the money to fix the roads. PA has enough of a tax on gas and the most expensive toll road in the US, they have no excuses, and Indiana doesn't really spend money on maintenance outside of maybe the rest areas.

1129514@reddit (OP)

nick_soccer10@reddit
Yes….. Louisiana roads were not given tax $ for repairs by the government until the changed the drinking age from 18 to 21 a couple decades ago, so they are still in terrible shape. I am well aware of what you were asking. Drive down I10 once you come into Louisiana from Texas and you will understand

The state bureaucrats are probably in collusion with the contractors to build roads that don't last long so they have to keep replacing them within a decade - why else would it always be under construction yet never gets better.
1129514@reddit (OP)
75% of the lane is huge holes, cracks, uneven patches, dips out of nowhere

It used to be more pothole than pavement. It's why its nickname was misery
jmzstl@reddit
They’re completely rebuilding I-70 and adding a third lane in each direction while they do it. So it’s probably a nightmare right now, but it should be better in about 5 years.
texastruckin@reddit
Idk I stay in Texas but driving southbound on I-45 close to Texas city into Galveston is very dangerous. 3 lane super narrow lanes and everyone flies through at like 75-80. There’s almost always a wreck each day. Seen multiple fatalities over my few years of driving that instersate.
