Since I have been spending the better part of my recent life stuck in traffic, I’ve become intrigued with the ebb and flow of stop and go. “Scientists said they are closer to comprehending the birth of the universe than the daily tie-ups along Interstate 66.” Joy. It doesn’t help that the road system is not being expanded to handle the increased volume (ie. more cars, no new roads). Then again, some say the problem is congestion, not lack of roads (more lanes means more congestion)… Not to mention that roads, specifically in the northeast, are in a constant state of (dis)repair due to increasing volume and the extremes of weather. More joy.
