    Eh traffic volume maybe. But you folks have the roads to deal with it. There is always away around crap between Diego and Wheeler Ridge.

    One fender bender on 24 east at MM56 can jam Nashville for three #### hours to go 8 miles. And it regularly does.

    Ask me today and I will answer Seattle-Tacoma. Horrible, nonsensical, slow, nobody moving, nobody knows how to drive.

    Driven in most of the major cities. The popular ones anyway. Lol. Philly is the toughest. It’s not even close actually. I changed jobs just to be able to not spend every day in that city.

    That’s my home town that I LOVE and know better than the back of my hand. Till I drove a truck there. Lol. Still love my city- I just do it in a car now.

    Yup traffic sucks. Especially when you just wake up and are ready to roll and make some money and you drive 10 minutes only to be stuck in traffic for a long period of time.

    Now if I know there's traffic at certain times allways. I try plan my days out so I'm driving thru those areas at night or the least busiest times.

    The few times I was out that way it seemed like every car was tailgating.

    Atlanta and Nashville are the worse. Then NYC and LA. At least in the latter 2, a majority of the drivers will just stay in their lanes.
    Can't stand it when it's bumper to bumper and people feel the need to go from the hammer lane over 3 lanes and then back to the hammer lane all to get in front of one car

    DC. I bypass the entire place on US 15 first thing or US 301 if US 15 is not a option. I dont care if they hop up and down about mileage from Fredricksburg to what? Opal? (Someone correct me here... Im really getting a lost memory here...) then 15 up.

    GWB is going to eat you up if you don't get used to it right quick. I went up there as a youngster and don't know any better all my life. So it's "My Bridge" so to speak. There are pretty much a million bridges in these USA. But that one is mine. (And yours and yours and yours etc etc etc...)

    Chicago should be walled off and then limited food catapulted over for them to fight over.

    Houston gets my goat. Somethings really stupid people endanger themselves under my bumper on purpose and for what? To get there 10 seconds faster? They might have all eternity to ruminate on their stupidity. (After being killed....)

    Atlanta is easy. Just pick a gear and do that Jersey crawl a touch slower than everyone else. Just DO NOT EVER GO THERE when it's fixing to ice. Imatelling you... One dam snowflake hit the place and everyone turns it all into a junkyard overnight.

    Dallas? Im still nursing anger towards certain stupid people who pretty much risked being decapitated by my trailer forcing their way past me. I should have allowed that trailer to chop em off. But I have no taste for Huntsville prision. So I made room. I hope they have had good lives and are sorry for being so stupid.

    Pretty much all the major cities have something for me. Memphis is my favorite. Nogales is another. These are not exactly nice places to go to. The last time I was stupid enough to park in Memphis I had a hooker standing on my fuel tank with freaking insects jumping off her eyebrows towards me. THAT would be the absolute last time I ever see there parked. I should have shot her for creating a infectious situation for which my wife will never ever buy.

    I don't mean to be such a bloody minded monster about some of these places. But there is way more than just these few.
