Well, the roads do anyway. As soon as you cross over the bridge from NV it turns to shit. Gets better for a while but quite a ways before Kingman turns crappy again.

Then I-40 is horrible all the way to the 93 turn off. 93 sucks most of the way to Wickenburg.

Then 60 south is filled with pot holes. Big ones too. They filled them but did a poor job.

Instead of fixing the roads they just post up signs that say rough road ahead next 10 miles. Or 20 miles. Or 100 miles. Or they should just post signs that say our roads suck throughout the whole state.

And what's with the price of gas / diesel in Phoenix area? Kingman was around $3.50 for diesel. Phoenix is almost $5.

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Hell, you didn't even come close to the bad stretch of I40. @wash11 is probably thankful when he exits and heads up a dirt road!

Don’t worry I saw somewhere else on RDP that Vin was loading up a truck of patch and going to take care of things this summer. I hope that you are not in a hurry toget anywhere as they block all the routes down to one lane. 👍

I straddle the ruts in my civic and run on the painted lines when I drive the bus. Roads really took a beating this winter

California has shittier roads and its getting worse in Arizona because to many Californians are moving here bringing the shitty road problem with them along with their political views.

LMAO 🤣 Just drive a little to one side of the road and you can avoid the potholes.

Watch the truckers, they know exactly where the worse parts are and move around to avoid them.

Interstate roads are federal responsibility. I’m not sure the state has much to say about how they are maintained.

In Phoenix the state-owned loop freeways are very well maintained. Go onto I17 or I10 and it can be rough in some sections. I think it’s pretty clear where the blame can be placed…. In general though AZ roads have always sucked.
