Default Thanks!

just wanted to circle back and thank you all for the advice. i went with the NJ locals and took the turnpike on thursday evening and had no problems!

i hit the del mem bridge around 5:45 without incident. when i pulled into the toll booth at the beginning of the njtpk there wasn't a single car lined up in front of me. i set the cruise control at 74 mph and only had to hit the brake 4-5 times for the whole trip! smooth sailing.

thanks again!

i did take 287. that's a nice road.

only snag in the whole trip was on the drive home, just about an hour from home...accident on 95S near aberdeen, md. it cost us about an hour. the worst part is i saw all the brake lights about 5 seconds AFTER i passed the exit to harve de grace (and it's rt. 40 bypass).

Hate to see your idea of a bad road if you think that about 287. Glad everything went well, and as you know it only takes one person to mess it up for the rest.
