I live in the Chicago 'burbs and traffic on some highways is brutal. It took me over two hours to get to O'Hare the other morning from Naperville because of an accident on 294 The Eisenhower on any day or any time is backed up. LA traffic didn't bother me much when I lived out there. The volume was pretty heavy but at least the freeway system was designed properly. When I lived in Long Island, traffic absolutely sucked. The LIE (Long Island Expressway) was referred to as the largest parking lot in the world.

hi dennis its stories like yours that made me move to the country. when i lived in vancouver the traffic was unbearable. traffic there is dictated by geography. mountains inland and pacific ocean. no matter how many lanes they can put in everything must go over bridges and the ones they have are not big enough. fortunately most of the traffic moves into vancouver in the am. i lived in van on the water so i was usually going against traffic but still its awful. like many in the city i used to get aggressive behind the wheel. took me two years to get that out of my system. now live in an area just north of montana. big worry now is deer and moose crossing the road. lol have a pleasant weekend charlie
