Now, our neighbors to the east have placed in the top 10 for best states to drive in. So congrats to the cold tundra we call North Dakota.

We have talked about the roads and driving more recently then we have in the past, especially with the recent fatalities we have seen on I90 just in the past 90 days. It's tragic.

Then there is the discussion of lack of street lights and painted stripes, or should I say, "lack of" painted stripes on the highways. So for Montana to make the list for Worst States To Drive In, really comes as no shock.
