Summary: 


{{[[<<()>>]]}}
 Worst road:

	FDR drive, along the east side of manhattan

Curvy, a pothole every other foot; waves in the road (throws your car up in
the air and you bounce a few times); 40 mph limit with timid folk doing 20 and
daredevils going 60; 5 foot entrance ramps (south); nails,screws and rivets
along the side of the road; mufflers,tailpipes and front end parts
in the middle;
	 and of course around every blind curve,
a work-truck laying new potholes with the warning cones exactly 3.89 feet
away from the man with the shovel. Of course he never gets hit 'cause
you are warned by the screetching tires of the car in front of you.

 'Driving in NY on the FDR drive - "A thrill a minute!" '

(But what ever happened to those guys who would get a flat at night and
make just around the nearest curve and change their tire, with the lights
off (to conserve the battery)?)
