Its something I hadn't noticed before but when checking out the Tail of the Dragon website (
http://www.tailofthedragon.com) I noticed there is a petition being signed to urge Tennessee to join North Carolina in banning trucks over 30ft from using the roadway 129 between the tenneesee / North Carolina border up to 19/74. I know this is aimed more at motorcyclists than automobile enthusiasts but the effect will be the same, a safer run down the tail of the dragon. Currently the ban is in place in North Carolina but this wont stop a truck from making the return trip form Tennessee. Many of you have been to this area and should be very aware that many of the corners along 129 simply are too sharp for tractor/trailers to make without encroaching on the opposing lane, many of these corners are BLIND! This combination is deadly. being one of Americas best cruises, it would be nice knowing that its safer to travel and enjoy. I know this is posted on Ninja250.org and thought this would be another good place to find support.
