OK, like I said, I do drive this stretch quite often and agree that from 165 to LC it did "hold" water or at least stayed "wet" longer and the new over lay did definitely help. I just did not notice the same thing on the rest of the road, but whatever helps these drivers that do not know how to slow down when it rains to maintain control.

I-10 was closed in Acadia Parish again yesterday afternoon because of a wreck after an afternoon shower. Passenger truck hit an 18 wheeler that ended up in the median on it's side, it was a tanker which = HazMat!!!

This was the fifth time in just a few short weeks I-10 was closed in Acadia Parish because of accidents!!!!!!!! The one yesterday was just a couple of miles east of the head on of the two 18 wheelers that caught fire a couple weeks ago.

People need to learn how to drive! Y'all be careful out there, especially traveling with your families.

End of rant.
