Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
No ACIN. I'm from San Diego. Trust me...... yeah rush hour is bad. But imagine rush hour at all times. East Coast Traffic from the Mid Atlantic and up is horrendous in general. Plus when its not rush hour on the freeway........ can you say getting from like....... Orange County to San Diego in an hour thirty or less.

Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
Yeah it is very dependent on time of day, LA traffic is actually very much dependent on sports season as well. When there is a laker or dodger game going on, there might as well be two more rush hours that day in some areas as people come in and leave from the game (although dodger games are not that bad since a lot of people like to leave during the 7th inning lol).Originally Posted by Centurion1
If east coast traffic is 24/7 rush hour...then god help them.
Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
well obviously hyperbole. But getting anywhere takes forever. way lower speedlimits and more congestion on average.
and the worst of it is people are just more obnoxious drivers.
Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
I thought speed limits on freeways/highways across the country were all the same Federal mandated 55mph.
Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
Not accurate. In the Northeast at least most of the highway speed limits are 65. I usually can get to 75-80 on them without a problem (never been pulled over). Going past 80 is chancing it though.

Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
Lol, yeah well people in CA don't exactly follow the guideline either. 70-80 is typical to see in the fast lane.
HOW DO YOU NOT DIE!

Re: Gov. Chris Christie: responsible when he wants to be.
Just did a Google Maps search for
A) Cherry Hill to Morristown NJ from GH's post (77.7 miles shortest route)
and
B) LA to San Diego (120 miles shortest route)
The NJ route gave a time of 1hr 38 min consistent with GH.
The LA-SD route gave a time of 2hr 4 min with a typical LA warning of 3 hr 30 min in traffic.
So 98 min to go 77.7 miles or .79 miles per minute for NJ.
And 124 min to go 120 miles (.96 miles/minute) not in traffic and 210 min to go 120 miles (.57 miles/minute) in traffic.
This is all from Google maps calculations though, so take it or leave it.
