Worst road/drive

Your worst journey/drive and on what kind of road.......

Mine would have to be a couple of years ago when I was seeing this lovely lady (memories) ,was  driving 20 miles every night after work back to her place,in Leicestershire,in winter,through this one stretch of unlit British countryside!

The girl dumped me after a couple months,I was secretly so relieved it ...

N322 Spain

The road from Albacete towards Cordoba apart from the first 20km and last 50 km. It sweeps along the edge of the mountains, with open curves, further West there is a incredible view across a plain towards the South and the Sierra Nevada, just look at the map! Very sparse traffic normally.

Once you reach the summit of the mountain (which can only be ...

Chuo Expressway through the Japanese Alps.Japan is a great country to drive in .The driver standard is good and speed limits are not  policed much. I have driven germanys autobahns and they are faster but not as scenic.Traffic congestion  in Japan is not a problem but tolls are expensive however the roads are engineering masterpieces.
