A perfect reason to blow my head off...
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100823...inaroadtraffic
I hate 1 hours worth of traffic, much less 2 or 3. I would've shot myself by the end of the first day. Thankfully I live in Texas and drive a big boy truck. Someone's front yard will be my new way home. |

Traffic...the reason I take a bike to work.
1.5 hours by car 25 minutes by bike. lol I think they can split lanes in China...as you don't see any bikes sitting there like idiots.

The cars all split lanes regularly (pretty normal to be 8 wide on a 5 lane road in rush hour), so there's no straight line to shoot between them. And they're all bumper to bumper, so zig-zagging isn't an option either. Bikes will usually go down the right shoulder (as will the pedestrians) which can get pretty chaotic when it comes time for cars to exit the highway. |

Damn, I am glad I only live 15 miles from where I work 1/2 super slab and 1/2 surface streets and I am there in just under 20 minutes by car, 15 flat by bike sometimes
