It may be terrifying to drive on, but do you know what's even more terrifying? Not being able drive on it, and taking the alternate truck route to the Holland Tunnel ... that is, if you're lucky.
I was not so lucky one early morning when I picked up my parents from Newark Airport. Police closed down the alternate route with nary a detour route laid out, and everybody was forced to follow the car in front of them with sheer hope that driver would know another alternate route to the Holland. So of course the car in front of us knew bupkus of how to get to the Tunnel, and we had hit a U-Turn and make our way through some of the most depressing industrial wasteland known to man.
