TACKER: speck66 () SUBJECT: Really bad traffic DATE: 12-Sep-05 18:43:30 HOST: sdf Freeway congestion is getting so bad, you can change a tire without losing your place in line. All across the country rush hour traffic is bumper to bumper. The next thing they'll be selling is anti-perspirant to put under your car's fender. Traffic is always heavy in both directions. there are just as many people trying to get to whatever you're trying to get away from. It's useless to print roadmaps anymore. You just get on the highway and go wherever the other cars take you. The only way to get home on time is to take the day off... even then, you're cutting it close. Traffic is so bad nowadays, a pedestrian is someone in a hurry. You can sit on the highways forever. In fact, some places have little exit ramps where you can pull over and make a car payment. During rush hour the only way you can change lanes is to buy the car driving next to you. .
