Worst road is the Campbeltown to Carradale road hadn’t long pasted my test when I got sent up there in 1987 with a crane on my Scania 112 low loader and had to unload it 3 times to get it round some off the bends I nearly chucked it after that took me nearly 4 hours to do 20 mile!

The topic is worst road in Scotland, if you want to troll take it elsewhere, for the more sensible guys don’t bite at the obvious trolling it only encourages them
Im not a troll, I’m a highly regarded upstanding member of society I’ll have you know…

The A701 from Dumfries to Beattock, as you are guaranteed to hit a deer and write-off your car at St. Ann’s Bridge.

Guaranteed? Well i’ve never done that there in many years. Sometimes see fallow grazing down in the bottoms though.
I’ve hit 5 or 6 deer in the truck over the years but I’d hate to hit one in the car.
i’d hate to think what people would say travelling on our real A roads! the afore mentioned ones are pretty tame compared to some of the A routes that travel throughout the country. not to mention that outwith the big 5 cities you cant do much without hitting a b road. some of the single carriageways here have a lane for both directions 
but on topic, its been mentioned loads, the A9 is certainly the most notorious, the road is fine, just the drivers 
The worst road in Scotland has to be ‘Any road in Aberdeen where there are Aberdonians driving on it too’ Have you seen that lot trying to drive?? The only place I know where the right hand lane at a roundabout is used for turning left!
Heard on their local radio yesterday that the Govt are going to spend 2 million on researching their bad driving habits!..Only ‘2’ million!! That’ll never be enough!
I would probably say as others have already mentioned that the worst A roads in Scotland are the A77 from stranraer to maybole and the A82 from loch Lomond to fort William.
Much of the roads network in Scotland is very poor,the A 76 from Dumfries to ■■■■■■■ is another poor road and the A9 from perth to inverness,the A96 between inverness and Aberdeen,the A1 from Berwick to Edinburgh and the A75 from Gretna to stranraer need upgrading to dual carriegway.
The most annoying thing I find with our road system in the uk is the high amount of money the government take of motorists in road tax and high fuel duty (especially truck owners) yet they put so little of that revenue received back into the maintainance and upgrading/building of our roads network!!

A75.M6 to Dumfries and back.Dangerous as if you stick to 40 mph on the S/C ¿ it may cause an accident as tempers flare and the queue behind take a gamble and risk overtaking in to oncoming traffic.
If go over 40 mph.The risk of a chat with a police officer in an unmarked car.The drivers heading up to the ferry or coming off it seem to be full speed ahead.Get out of my way.I am getting past.
In some sections it seems they are building new dual carriagways.
And to add.There is a haunted feeling on that road.Sleepy Hollow with Johhny Depp and the headless horseman comes to mind.
Alone on the road is spooky.With mist and fog you imagine bad things.
Have to agree with you there toby,driving on the a75 is not a road you can win on driving with a truck,if you drive at the 40mph legal limit for s/c when its safer to go faster you understandably annoy other road users who take risks yet if you drive at a safer more sensible 50 mph when conditions allow you risk a £60 fine and 3 points from the d&G police,the problem with that road is too many trucks on the limiter at 56mph and that’s not safe if the outdated 40mph speed limit for trucks was abolished and trucks were allowed to legally travel at 50mph when the conditions allowed and was safe to do so that would make the road safer.
Trucks on that road have no speed limiter, 70 mph plus is quite common for certain firms and countries.It should be a twin track to Dumfries.
