Ever been in bumper to bumper traffic?



We were today on our way home from getting a haircut. Cars were lined up for over a mile to get to the road we turn on to get to our street. Unfortunately, that was the only way, so we had to go that way to get home. So yeah, took about 30 minutes, but the cool part about that was we saw my uncle Ben who we haven't seen since Christmas, because he was driving in the other lane beside us when I noticed his truck. May of seemed bad being in bumper to bumper traffic, but at least we weren't the ones in the wreck and I got to see my uncle for a few minutes.
 
Even though there is 300,000 people in my town, the traffic doesnt get too bad. Its getting worse and worse though as we are a commuter city and more and more people from the metropolitan area are moving over here because houses are a little cheaper and they would just rather drive an hour to work.
 
I've had some very heavy traffic when I went to watch Monster Jam but it wasn't to horrible, also its kinda cool you call him Uncle Ben because that's what Peter Parker calls his uncle

I feel sorry for commuters. I work in town so I can just drive on the regular streets to work. When I drive by the freeway (usually only early in the morning), its always backed up and traffic is barely moving. It takes some people like 4 or 5 hours just to drive 50 or 60 miles because of the traffic.
 
All the time. Once the new bypass is completed it should help to alleviate the congestion.
