What's your 06?

Makes me go hmmm?!?!?

Posted by Derek Anderson on Feb 21 2008, 12:46 PM

I have logged a lot of highway miles along Interstate 95 between New London and Maine this past year. Most often this driving occurs during the darkness of night. 

For those of you have traveled the Maine stretch of I-95 you know the exits are few and far between. According to the official Maine Turnpike map, there are just 7 exits and more than 40 miles of I-95 between the Maine Border and Portland. So here's what makes me go hmmm?!?!?.

Why do people leave their GPS navigation units on while their driving down the Turnpike in the middle of the night? I mean, I realize it is easy to get lost in Maine, but do people really need those things glaring in their eyes to make sure an exit 12 miles down the road does not sneak by them.

Better yet, check out this picture? Generally when I enter a tunnel in my car I know that I'm gonna come out on the other side. Hmmm?!?!?
