I have drove in 49 out of 50 states (never been to Hawaii) and Illinois ranks the worst in my opinion. It's like they ran out of asphalt and stopped doing any repairs 10 or 20 years ago.

To people not living in the U.S., feel free to complain about your country's roads too.

years ago, we could always tell when we crossed-over into iowa just from shit-tier freeways we'd encounter.. and it made no difference what direction and state we were coming from. which was a different experience than knowing exactly when you left iowa and ventured into omaha.. which was done by smell alone.

I drove through Nebraska one time, and the only thing I remember is how bad that state smelled. "Industrial Rot" was the best way I could describe it
