Nitin Gadkari, the senior Bharatiya Janata Party politician and currently India’s Minister for Road Transport and Highways and Shipping, just concluded\u00a0a week-long official tour of the United States. \u00a0A news report<\/a> distributed by a wire service described his “landmark US visit as a grand success<\/em>.” \u00a0Discerning readers would find that it reads little different from an official press release.<\/p>\n

On the last leg of his tour, Mr. Gadkari\u00a0saw fit to go on what is arguably the most scenic road trip in the US: the long coastal drive along the Pacific Coast Highway between\u00a0San Francisco and\u00a0Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

Pacific Coast Highway (Hwy 1),\u00a0California<\/h2>\n
\"Pacific<\/a>

\"Pacific
Pacific Coast Highway, California<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This mind-blowing, 600+ mile stretch of road that is a must-experience on any US tourist’s bucket list, what with cliff-hugging roads reminiscent of a thin ribbon and bluer-than-blue sea on the other side.<\/p>\n

So, how does a Union Minister for road transport and highways justify the “tedious journey”? \u00a0The same news agency obliged with these explanations in another report<\/a>:<\/p>\n

…to gain […]\u00a0a first-hand experience of the latest road engineering, highway construction, road signage techniques, besides an understanding of other effective road safety measures.<\/em><\/p>\n

…Gadkari said the idea behind undertaking this drive was to understand technology, machinery and construction material being used by the transportation department and other local agencies in the United States in constructing and maintaining the amazing overhangs and cliffs along the difficult coastline.<\/em><\/p>\n

Indian-Americans who understand well the draw that the Pacific Coast Highway is, had this unanimous reaction on social media: “Yeah, right!”<\/p>\n

We decided to make ANI’s job easier, by compiling a list of 25 more recommended road trips for Mr. Gadkari or some other Indian politician who fancies a beautiful road trip in the US. \u00a0Also included in the recommendations below are talking points to spin into another explanation of a news release.<\/p>\n

Hana Highway is a serpentine stretch of road between Kahlui and Hana. \u00a0This 52 mile stretch has 620 curves and 59 bridges making it a rather slow drive, especially if you\u2019re going to be making stops on the way. \u00a0The reasons to make stops are many; from fresh mangoes being sold on the road side, to the many waterfalls and pools along the way, this highway is littered with photography vantage points. \u00a0Anyone with a penchant for scenic drives might want to go on this one the next time for a better understanding about roads along rugged coastlines.<\/p>\n
