There is so much going on out there along 89, doolin, American & Macedonia Ridge. Many Large truck tearing up small roads. This has created a hot situation with locals travelers and Contractors of various utilities. I have many times this year followed large trucks for 25 miles doing 15 miles an hour. The contractors are from out of state and have no manners or conciderations for people trying to get home in the evening even after 6pm. I will guess road rage may have started this with some out of state contractor. Although my opinion is only hypothedical, I have seen many instances lately. Macedonia Ridge is torn up more than the rest. I hope the state is recooping the money it is going to take to repave all those roads. My taxes and utilities are to high already.
