Glad all are okay. Yes, the Terwilliger Curves are definitely not to be trifled with. The heavier traffic volume over the years and especially over the last two decades exacerbates this issue. I live in Roseburg now, so don't navigate them often, but I sure used to, often with a load of gas pipe or water heaters.

Terwilliger curves are a nasty set of curves in between portland and Salem, best advice i can give you after having been a resident here for 20 years is avoid em if you can, go extra slow if you cannot.
At this time all drivers are okay.

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.
