As a kid dad used to drive the family, in school holidays,via the Hume highway to Albury to stay with rels. He called it the Crystal Highway due to the seemingly never ending piles of broken windscreen glass at the side of the road.

Yes, heard that. We called it Sesame Street or the Black Snake. So many truckies died on it, fatigue and driving too fast for the conditions, cleaned up mostly now, but still the odd fool pays the ultimate sacrifice. If you stop at Tarcutta there is  is a truckies memorial, so many names, so sad.

Certainly was, terror of a Special Traffic Patrol bloke worked that, I drove through it some months ago, dead as a dodo, by passed now of course like every other place on Sesame St. The STP was previous name of HWP, name change in 1975.
