Low bidder contract when this road was paved. No embankments in curves or worse yet, a reverse embankment which compounds control of your vehicle while steering through curves. Another problem is the very thin pavement which has broken down from the many heavy loads of dirt hauled by the county’s dump trucks. Notice how it is the south travel lane that is heavily damaged.
Not hard to lose control on this road. From Highway 164 to Highway 4 is awful! Needs to be resurfaced very bad. Most people drive on the wrong side of the road in places just to keep from beating up there vehicles from all of the potholes. The county patches frequently but one good rain and it’s back in the same condition.
Hope this lady is ok !
