I really don't know were this comes from. Perhaps the roads deteriorate in winter. We drove there in June 2004 and the roads were much better than, say, in Michigan. Some frost heaves but certainly no problem at sane speeds. We drove a 1988 Volvo 240 station wagon that was loaded so much that the rear mudflaps practically touched the ground. We had absolutely zero problems with the roads. 60-70 mph was comfortable cruising speed. We could go 90-100 mph in places where the forest was farther from the road (animal crossing was the only real safety concern.)
