Whether stuck in traffic because of construction or fixing a flat tire after hitting a pothole, Michiganders feel frustrated with the quality of our roads.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A broken transportation system hits Michiganders in the pocketbook. Every year, our friends and neighbors spend millions of dollars on car repairs after driving on crumbling streets.
The road hasn't always been paved for me. People identify with that. Everybody passes through hard times, and I think that's part of my appeal - that I have, too.
The road is hard, and you have to get accustomed to it.
When people think about Michigan, they usually think about cars.
At some point, if you don't take care of the roads today, it's like any other maintenance issue: you're going to end up paying a lot more down the road.
Good things do not come easy. The road is lined with pitfalls.
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.
Interstate highways dull the reality of place and distance almost as effectively as jetliners do: I loathe their scary monotony.
I don't know anybody's road who's been paved perfectly for them, there are no manuals, you don't know what life has in store for you.
If you don't like the road you're walking, start paving another one.
