When you live in the Great Lakes region each of your fellow Midwestern states has it’s own flavor and because of this you develop a certain sense of how driving goes in each state. For example, most drivers in Michigan are freakin’ idiots that a) don’t know how to use a turn signal, b) don’t know how the hi-beam/lo-beam switch works and c) thinks they are a NASCAR driver and that speed limits are just suggestions.
You also knew that speeding in Ohio was a bad idea because the highways were loaded with the Ohio State Highway Patrol cars and they weren’t just reading a book, they were pulling people over left and right. I have lived all over the country but I have gotten more tickets in Ohio than anywhere else. They also tended to have a shitty attitude.
As a rule I am careful about my speed in Ohio, compared with Michigan where they seem to have 3-4 state troopers to cover the entire state and the speed limit north of Flint is “however fast your vehicle will go”.
But last week we took a couple of days and went to the Toledo Zoo and then drove most of the length of I-75 through Cincinnati and into Kentucky. Did a few things down there and then came home. It has been a while since I have driven that stretch and last week it was like something out of Mad Max. I frequently was going over 80 and cars were passing me like crazy. No one seemed to be concerned about cops and I think I only saw one or two.
The truckers were the scary part. Weaving over the line, driving super slow, driving super fast, changing lines right in front of people. Often the worst offenders were trucks with a temporary magnetic placard on the side of a fairly new white truck. We were in my wife’s car instead of one of my vans so I couldn’t see into the cab but I would bet most/all of them were driven by some mystery meat foreigner. It isn’t that White truckers don’t do some of that but the sheer volume of it made the trip rather nerve wracking.
Keep in mind that I spend a ton of time on the road for my business although not much of it on highways, but as someone who learned to drive in Ohio and lived there a lot of years I am saying without qualification that at least I-75 in Ohio is a pretty sketchy road to travel compared to years prior. I am a reasonably “safe-aggressive” driver and even I was a little startled at how bad things are on the highways.
Gee, I wonder what has happened over the last few decades that might account for this?
Try driving in Commiefornia. Between the rag heads and the illegal beaners it can be sketchy at best.
Yea you have to be an offensive and defensive driver in Commieland…
I drove I-40 out to Barstow, OK, TX, NM, and AZ were all covered with pajeet drivers. Filling the bathrooms at gas stations. More damn “Indian Food” signs along the interstate than I could count. Don’t see quite as many east of the Mississippi.
Walmart has filled Bentonville AR with pajeets, so you’ll find them and their supply chain all through Oklahoma. They’ve taken over most of the suburbs and towns north of Dallas, as well, working their way up to the state border. Endless supply of pajeets.
Ohio will be Artificial Imbecile data center territory under Pajeeta burner Vance and paperwork American Vivek.
Only saw one donut molester when visiting MI at $2 a gallon.
Out Illinois way is some of my favorite unless there is a wreck and back up.
I love the country compound at mile marker 43.
Last month I was heading west on I-90, almost to Cleveland, when I came up on a rig swerving all over the place, as if all the other vehicles were obstacles to be rounded by any means necessary. Do I need to describe the driver?
Spot on about the Ohio Highway Patrol badge niggers. All, I repeat ALL of them are faggots.
Growing up in Ohio, they thought they were real tough boys and enjoyed strong-arming and intimidating motorists and anyone else.

Sorry I am late on moderating comments
After his fifth kill, each illegal Indian driver gets a green card.
Truck driver here. 26 years of hazmat/tanker experience.
I’m in Western New York. There has been a dramatic loss of etiquette on the roads, especially among “professional” drivers. Tailgating, drifting, no signals, high-beams, all of it. In my AO, we get a lot of Canadian drivers which means pajeets. They are the worst. Driving a big truck like they’re piloting a rickshaw through a damn street bazaar.
Then you have the regular assholes. Dudes in pickups who are on your ass no matter how fast you go, clueless women who are the worst tailgaters. Then you have the completely mindless; people doing 15mph on the 90??? Yep, that was last Friday. Saw a big truck pass him on the shoulder!!
I think CW2 could very well start on the highways.
I’m also in WNY, working in a globohomo factory. About half what we make gets sent across the border and every damn trailer with Ontario tags that comes to our warehouse is driven by a rag-headed curry dipper.
What’s amazing is that South Central & much of Southeastern Ohio still looks the same as it did when I was growing up in the 1950’s. US 52 is one of the most scenic drives in the FUSA as you follow the Ohio River. The ferry still operates from nearby Ripley & crosses the river to Augusta, KY. Some of the towns are run down & other still maintaining their 19th & early 20th Century charm. Thanks to the Double AA Highway in Kentucky, truck traffic has been reduced making the route even more safe & requiring less maintenance than in the past. Although poverty stricken, this part of Ohio has very little crime & guess why? The Amish moved into this region back in the late 1960’s & revitalized its agrarian heritage. Their store in West Union brings in customers who drive a couple of hours to get there. The only concern now is how long will it all last? Adams County is seeing cheap land bought up & developed. Is cultural enhancement on the way, too?
If you have the time, staying off the interstate and taking the secondary roads will help you avoid the traffic, the cops, the truckers, and let you see more scenery. East of about Kansas City or Dallas, the view from all US interstates is pretty much the same.
I-95 in south Florida is a challenge except at rush hour when it is at a crawl from West Palm Beach through Miami. Even the “express” lanes are misnamed at those times. At oh-dark-hundred on the weekend vehicles will shoot past you too fast to identify what they are. You’ll only be able to tell motorcycle, sedan, or SUV by general size.
I used to live on that road. After driving in Miami as much as I did, the rest of AINO seems pretty tame by comparison. Other places may be as or more congested, but I’m convinced that nowhere (in AINO) are the drivers as crazy or unpredictable.
Every subhuman must be removed from our land. The end.
