      At some point you need to actually leave the roundabout.

    If you appear to be “alternative” in any way, do not drive through Texas.

    I have driven through Texas three times, and I have gotten pulled over and searched every time. The cops would love to have any excuse to seize your car and cash, they hate you.

    If you absolutely must drive through Texas, at least remove your Darwin fish and any political stickers, get a hair cut, remove your face piercings, and wear a cowboy hat or baseball cap or something.

    I’m not exaggerating and this is not a joke.

    Oh yeah? Well where I live I can drive for a solid 24 hours and never leave my county.

    Because I live on O’ahu and I’d be driving in circles (or sitting in rush hour traffic coming from Westside into town, yeah)

          Nah, these are the right sizes. The middle of the country is mostly unpopulated desert (and then Alice Springs). If you mark deserts off as their own states, the snakes and dingos refuse to pay for road maintenance and that’s how you get Mad Max.

        At least you have a road that reaches diagonally across WA. If Alaska did it would take a lot longer than that

          Alaska w/ an area of 1.7m sq/km or 663k sq/Freedom Units compared to Western Australia 2.5m sq/km or 975k sq/Freedom Units I’m not sure about that… But I suppose it’s possible.

      California is pretty similar if you’re going north to South… if you avoid commute hours. Then you’re looking at. 16 hour drive.
