I've never understood it... it just makes for a rough drive.

There is some good dy/dx threads that can come from this.

maybe some dx/dt threads...

but at anyrate, I can't stand that stretch of highway 21 past Caldwell where the right line is textured pavement, I always have to move over to the left lane

Stop with the dy/dx. I took that final this morning. There will be no more discussion of the dy/dx today.

it is because instead of just fixing the road, they just put a sign that says "textured payment" and then they can be lazy arss bums and leave it all jacked up.
