I place this section of road as one of the worst in America. Especially when towing.

The only road worse than the 10 and the 90 south out of Lafayette,La that I've ever driven is the 285 south out of Carlsbad, NM.

One of them tore a shock apart on my truck and the other I still have nightmares about.

We just want people to slow down and visit for a while. Actually our transportation fund is and has been used as a slush fund for the state police. Then we also built a bridge to nowhere in New Roads. Meanwhile the roads can wait.

I agree, we came through there a couple of weeks ago and my Banks transmission control broke loose from its mounting and hung up over the exhaust melted the wiring shorting the system out. $400 dollars later we got back on the road again.
Retired and enjoying it!

It's true. I-20 through Shreveport is about as bad... if not worse.

I've heard that for many, many years now. Never tried it myself but I'll take the word of others.

South bound I65 through Birmingham should be avoided also. I can't believe they haven't fixed this mess after years of bone jarring trips through there. I can't believe my MH is still in one piece after coming through there the day after Christmas. Totally unacceptable!
