Welcome to my site.Whether you are buying a car,renting a car,selling a car or just browsing I hope you enjoy the trip. The Holidaysare right around the corner and many of us will be taking road trips to visit family members. I am helping my husband to plan our trip to see family in December. I went to the Federal Department of Transportation to see what they had to say about safety and find out about road conditions. Not only did I find the specific information that I was seeking,I found a whole section on byways to travel and some of the most amazing scenery. The National Scenic Byways Program is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration. The program is a grass-roots collaborative effort established to help recognize, preserve and enhance selected roads throughout the United States. Since 1992, the National Scenic Byways Program has funded 2,181 projects for state and nationally designated byway routes in 50 states, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia. The U.S. Secretary of Transportation recognizes certain roads as All-American Roads or National Scenic Byways based on one or more archeological, cultural, historic, natural, recreational and scenic qualities. Our definition of "scenic" reaches beyond breathtaking vistas. All of America's Byways® are "scenic", representing the depth and breadth of scenery in America--natural and man-made panoramas; electrifying neon landscapes; ancient and modern history coming alive; native arts and culture; and scenes of friends, families and strangers sharing their stories.America's Byways® are gateways to adventures where no two experiences are the same. The National Scenic Byways Program invites you to come closer to America's heart and soul... Our definition of "scenic" reaches beyond breathtaking vistas.
