Hate traffic? Stay out of the greater Dallas area.. The freeways are horrific. If you try to go the posted speed limit you'll either get hit from behind or run over the person in front of you. It goes like 106mph to zero and sitting still right back to 106 back to zero all within a half a mile.. When traffic backs up people usually just drive right off the road over fences and even railroad tracks.. Yes, I did see someone do that.. And don't forget all those wonderful exploding gasoline trucks that get hit by drunk drivers going the wrong way on the freeway.. I lived half a block from one when the entire bridge had to be rebuilt after the gas truck burned.. Fun times!
