What's the worst road you've ever had to drive through? (lemm.ee)

I'm sure most of us have had an absolute white-knuckled drive through a terrifying road - whether it's a terrifying mountain switchback or just a poorly designed miserable highway. Go nuts!

Some background: I have a horrendous fear of heights.

To start, I remember going down to South Carolina when I was 18 to visit my friend. Her friend drove us through an Appalachian mountain road at blood-curdling speeds and I was kind of drafting out my will in my head.

Similar story to when I went to California for my cousin's wedding more recently. I find something about those mountain roads around Hollywood to be absolutely nauseating. Serpentine, narrow, had me holding on to the Oh Shit handles of the rental car.
