Worst Road

Do you have a spot in town that you’d rather eat your own foot than drive through? Clearly readers do, because when we asked them for their thoughts on the Worst Road, they spoke up loud and clear. While folks might like shopping there, they certainly do not like driving anywhere within ¼ mile of Oakwood Mall, giving it the dubious distinction of worst road. Coming in second is Clairemont Avenue, specifically all of its red lights. In third place is the US 53 bypass, and our readers are specifically calling out aggressive driving. Stay safe out there! —James Johonnott
