Going for a drive across the state for business or pleasure doesn't have to be a grueling journey. There are some who listen to the radio, podcasts, or an audiobook, or just spend the entire trip on their phone.

If you're native to South Dakota and travel for work or family then you most likely have the shortest route plotted out on a familiar road.

Have fun!
