The thousands upon thousands of 18-wheelers that travel our roads due to marine terminals don't really help out either.

The roads suck, end of story. There's nothing that you or I can do about it.

I've been trying to figure out that myself.. the country where my moms from they ONLY did road work at night and it was better for the whole area.. it just makes more sense if you ask me.

my car is stock height, but my truck is lifted and the handling is a little loose. so when i hit potholes, i'm all over the road.

you want some shitty driving? I-81 in pennsylvania. it's a fucking nightmare.

Their only good once you get to the exit past 199 where I ussually get off.

The roads are only good because of Jamestown though and the 400th anniverery. Even though it was only used by the thousands of state troopers that came during when the queen did.

264 and 64 is retartedly bad, My car rides at stock height and every freekin expansion joint severely jarrs the entire car. The abuse is reaping havoc on my cv assemblies, and my front suspension (especialy the bushings). When I had my old car (MR2) hitting those things would unsettle the whole car, and more than once it came back down a little crooked. I handled it, but it was dicey when the wheel would try to yank itself out of my hand.

I don't know what part of NC you're referring to, but roads in this area are definitely not pleasant to drive on.
