    I remember the routes, too, but you don’t have random road congestion or construction that sometimes necessitates alternative routes? It’s like having a psychic friend that tells you when the most direct route is fucked.

      sure, but east is still easy. I don’t mind heavy traffic, or needing detours. I’m patient and hardly even in a rush. if I’m late for something, meh…

        In my community, it seems the local, state, federal government and local utilities are all competing to shut down as much of roads as possible, so there’s always a bunch of weird diversions to traffic. An unfortunate side-effect of underinvestment in infrastructure until the need is absolutely dire.

        Because the crews don’t get much work done in the winter, they tend to concentrate all their work on warmer months, which exacerbates the issue.
