    It irks me to no end that North and South American road networks are not connected despite being part of the same landmass.

      There are a lot of theories as why to this hasn't been done including pressure against it by the US government and Panamanian government.

    Cerro de la muerte in Costa Rica has no unpaved parts since decades ago...
    The name containing the word death is because people died during its construction because temperatures drop below 32° Fahrenheit in the zone

      I live less than a half a miles from the highway. The highway of death has been called that since the 1920s or before.
