I hate I-85 in Charlotte
So this is a little rant about one of our big interstates in the area. And I hate it. I ride from harrisburg to the Airport everyday whengoing and coming from work. And it gets crazy. All the people drive like freaking idiots. Also the whole way in today gravel and other misc crap was tagging me all over. I wish there was another route that wasnt an extra hr to get to work!! Sorry to bother yall just hate riding on I85

I've been riding 35+ years and have been a professional driver (off and on) about that long. I-85 from Kannapolis to Fair Play, SC is the MOST dangerous road I've ever travled, regardless of the time of day!
So, AMEN

RE: I hate I-85 in Charlotte
I hear ya brother. I hit it every week morning at Hwy 16 and go north to Speedway Blvd. Gotta stay sharp, lower lanes are like some kind of Nascar race. I stay in the fast lane and keep my speed up, that way I only have to watch one side. But your right it's unnerving.

RE: I hate I-85 in Charlotte
You guys obviously have never driven in and around Atanta,Ga. , Atlanta makes the roads around Charlotte seem like a drive in the country. I drive a big truck reguarly around both of thesetowns ,even though Charlotte does suck Atlanta is by far the worst.I almost got killed down there last Sun. , a car hits a 6 wheeled straight truck causing him to loose control , he hits me in the drivers side cab area and forces me off the road and into a guardrail running 60mph. After the dust cleared the POS in the car leaves caring less if he had just caused someone to get hurt or killed.
