Deadly Interstates
I recently saw an article, in he Atlanta paper, that said that Interstate 285 around Atlanta is the most deadly interstate highway in the US.

The interstate mentioned is I-285 or "the perimeter". This is why those of us who have lived in Atlanta and/or have to travel through often, urge RVer's to go straight through On I-75 or I-85.There is a total disregard for speed limits on the perimeter and it is full of 18 wheelers.
It is very difficult for drivers who are unfamiliar with the lane changes to make split second decision about where they need to be. I had rather sit in standstill traffic for 1/2 an hour than subject myself to that. lizzie

AND the semi's are THE biggest offenders of speeding and crawling up within inches of your back end on I-285 during anytime during the day. WHEN are they going to start ticketing these dangerous idiots? :R
I did that 'once' never again. Now I plan my trip thru Georgia coming from the North to stop at a CG right outside the city limits. I get up around 4:00 am and use I-285. It's a breeze at that time of day and limited amount of 18 wheelers.
