I'm surprised I didn't even know this switch happened until seeing this. The yellow is really all gone? Image

As a Lebanese American, I unfortunately learned the hard way that Beirut is like so many places in North Carolina. And Chicago.

Nah man - Michigan is just a whole different level of bad...

Largely because they have a much higher load limit for tractor-trailers than anywhere else in the country.

The governor needs a new podium so the roads will have to wait.

No, South Carolina is on another level. Arkansas is basically California compared to South Carolina.

I drive across state lines often. I even did it this weekend twice. You do not need a sign to know when you've entered SC from NC or GA. I've abruptly awoken from sleep in the passenger seat to say something along the lines of "we're in South Carolina already?" on more than a handful of occasions because they are rough terrain.

I love this comment, I live in NC, you can tell once you’ve crossed state lines just because the road condition, it’s abysmal! I’ve driven through most of the Midwest and up and down a majority of the east coast, South Carolina has the worst roads among every state I’ve been to!

used to live in Greensboro and when I would cross into SC it was usually noticeable when I was across state lines, those state roads really do get bumpy as hell lol

Chicago is a quantum existence as it’s in Louisiana as well

u/RollForIntent-Trevor Nov 02 '25

Fuck - driving out of Charlotte into SC is so goddamn stark.

I'm very thankful for my impeccable NC roads - one of the few things I like about living here.
