So PA roads are terrible. Reasons why:
At Breezewood (change between Interstate and Turnpike):
Very sharp turns
Very slow speeds
Lights
Changing lanes
Bad sign/sign placements
If you do end up missing the turn, you might have to travel ~8! miles before you can turn around
In Pittsburgh:
Lots of one way streets
Traffic has to turn lots of 90 degree corners because of two way streets becoming one way
Missing/hard to see/bad placement of signs
Streets connecting in odd directions
When I came into Pittsburgh I had a couple turns to make and was to my freinds appartment in a couple of turns. When I was leaving pittsburgh, she directed me to a gas station and google directed me on another route to get to the interstate. I ended up spending over 5 miles before I reached the interstate and while I never ended up lost, at one point I stopped and looked at my map (blackberry is nice) for 5 minutes because I thought I was lost.
