Soo many strugglers on my drive to Portland and back. The 5 was fine when it was two lanes and had a 70 mph limit but a 60 mph for trucks. It was way more chaotic when there were three or more lanes, or when the limit was 60 mph for everyone. Large semis and trailers inching past each other in 60 zones. No cars in the right lane over long stretches of three lane roadway.
But at least there were multiple lanes at all times in Alberta, Washington, and Oregon. Nothing makes you appreciate how minor the annoyances of multi lane highway driving are than being delayed three hours due to an accident on the TCH between Revelstoke and Golden.
