WTF?

I think H-Town is worse off than the Big D.... Dallas traffic at least f'king flows.... for the most part that is.



So you're in a sub ghetto of Dallas..... yeah, for some odd reason that has Oak Cliff written all over it.

Austin ought to be on the list.
I'm coughing and feeling a little congested myself.

Of course, I come from a small city too. I had to relearn how to drive when I lived in DFW.
Ummm.
from 2000 to 2003 I made typically weeky trips up thru dallas. I rolled thru that bitch swangin' and bangin' and no body gave me no grief. Maybe it's just the parts you hit? I dunno....

Hard to say... they're always working on something but never really finishing anything.

Inner city where 35 & 30 meet....635...and Loop 12 is hell too, especially around 5pm. But this was in the late 90's. I left not long after they finished with the Tollway so that may have diverted traffic better.

When I rode through there a couple of years ago at 10pm on the bike....down I-20, up 360, then onto 185, it was alot busier than what I'm accustomed to. The cars wouldn't let me get my comfort space between them and made me a little nervous
