Though the CDC still recommends avoiding non-essential travel, some restrictions will lift throughout the summer.
Driving has been deemed one of the safest modes of travel during the pandemic, so many Americans might be considering a summer getaway on the road.
If you drive to the attractions on this list, you don't even have to leave your car to experience them.
In Montana, you can see a glacier from the side of the road.

Though traveling internationally might still be off the table this summer, road trips could be an alternative way to get out of town.

But no road trip is complete without a few stops to take in the best sights America has to offer — from wacky roadside attractions to stunning vistas. The best part? You don't even need to get out of your car to see most of them.

Here's the best thing to see from your car in each state.
