Had a guy pass me on I-65 on a crotch rocket watching a movie on his cell phone.. Years ago when camera phones first came out. I was riding with a guy who was taking selfies and eating a Big Mac at the same time. Going 85 down the interstate with no hands on the handlebars.

couple years before I retired I had a woman pass me on 459 with a book held to the steering wheel READING while running 80mph....Lord help us. I've seen that multiple times in my life. I honestly think the only solution to all this is self-driving cars. They'll be common sooner than most of us would probably believe.

I drive 459 and 65 all the time for work. It's not just where you're headed but when. 459 has got a little better since the malfunction junction work has completed.

If there no wrecks, the interstates ar fine. There is a whole lot more traffic on them now though
this^^^^^^^^is for sure 100% NOT true. I've been on 459 and traffic comes to a stop 3-4 times traveling from one end to the other. Not a damn wreck in sight 99% of the time, just too many idiots on the road. and apparently you haven't used I65 south of Bham very much....

There is alot of traffic on the road and gridlock,, stop and go is still better than a dead stop for a long period of time. The slow down we hit usually starts at the shelby county airport exit. If hit it there, we know there is a chit show somewhere ahead. If you hit it early enough you can take 31 but it gets crowded quick. I have learned to drive at certain time of the day to avoid the gridlock. Driving 20 to 20 mph from prattville to bham sucks but it's still moving. Merging traffic, a wreck or trooper just sitting on the side with his lights on causes most of the discomfort on 65.

People texting when they should be driving should be pulled from their cars and beaten senseless on the side of the road.

People texting when they should be driving should be pulled from their cars and beaten senseless on the side of the road. The solution is very simple. Drop the speed limit completely. Then execute anyone who causes a wreck, or drives under 85 in the left lane.

Wouldnt it be nice to run to Mobile from to Huntsville in 2 hours for $20? I would pay $20 for a Huntsville to Nashville as long as the train had a stop at the airport. Airfare out of HSV is stupid high.

Particularly 459 south between Liberty Parkway and Acton Rd exit. Bumper to bumper, barely moving, every day, no reason for it. Never a wreck. Always a jam.
