Driving here is not difficult but you do need to keep alert. Good rest and trip planning is required for a trouble free trip. There has been a little rain but not enough to cause any bad traffic accidents. There may be multi lane roads, but when they have all lanes filled with trucks, nobody get anywhere quickly.
