Traffic

What is the traffic like in your city? I live in Denver and I used to think that our afternoon rush hour was god awful but I am currently in Herndon Va. on a business trip and they have absolutely the worst traffic in the entire United States of America. It took me an hour to go 30 miles. So how does your city rate?

I choose to leave my house at 6:30 every morning just so I can miss all the traffic. Less Stress !!! (of couse that means I leave work at 4 pm to) !!!
In the summer it is not bad, but in the winter it is terrible (college town) with every one back in school.

Traffic is a Bitch everywhere! When we get up in the morning and walk down to swim in the Caribbean Sea we always have to dodge a bicycle or two.

or noon... or 3:45... or 6:00....

Mike commuted from our house to downtown Dallas for 6 years... if he left by 6:30 in the morning, he could be there in 30 minutes... if he left any later than that, it would take an hour to TWO hours to make the commute.... Same thing on the return trip...

Now he works farther north so the commute isn't as bad.

But he HATES having to drive into, through or past Austin.
