Maybe the "bad press" can shame some people into taking some action. They hide in the shadows and avoid any press on it. The stories exist because WE point it out.

And warning fellow RV'ers about the dangers of 3rd world country style responses to weather...that's just the responsible thing to do 😉

I don't like Pa. They have too many Orange Barrels and Truckers think they are Schneider Eggs https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=M5sgTwZp&id=13EED4998C0ABED8F1395F2128071119DFEF6FF9&thid=OIP.M5sgTwZpbOT-VEOD5m0qjAHaE_&mediaurl=http%3a%2f%2fwww.hankstruckpictures.com%2fpix%2ftrucks%2farcher%2f2001%2fmay%2fschneider_frtlnr.jpg&exph=539&expw=800&q=pic+schneider+truck&simid=608048181656423088&selectedIndex=0&ajaxhist=0
I 81 has been under construction for 50 years now. If they'd build it right, it would last like German Roads do.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

I think the RVs are fine, it's the drivers that should be shut down. HAH!:)

Well, I can't say much against FL, after moving from WV, over 20yrs ago and after traveling the lower 48. I do love the west for traveling and CA is probably our favorite, with it's diverse geography. Wouldn't want to live there though.

24hrs or longer being stranded on MAJOR interstates or even the PA Turnpike is becoming common (within past few days), so bring extra (survival) supplies!

This also applies to summer months. When traveling in PA during warmer weather, always assume you will sit in traffic at road repair sites. And not just on major highways.
