Every afternoon when all of the corporations shut down for the afternoon, traffic is an absolute nightmare; Around 4:00, the roads are packed with people & it is impossible to go someplace suddenly! Downtown is of course the worst venue to be in the afternoon, however everyone is leaving the buildings & heading toward the interstate, and it’s best to be heading in the opposite direction during this time of the afternoon… Yesterday I had a heater service task at 5:00 in the afternoon.
It was my last task of the afternoon & I was already on the other side of town.
I knew that I was going to barely make it to the task, even if I moved suddenly. I got onto the interstate & traffic was moving suddenly until an accident occurred, and when the accident occurred, traffic slowed down to a crawl. I was stuck a half mile behind the part where the accident was located. It took almost an hour for the crews to scrub things up & half of that time I was resting there waiting, then the man for the heater service was frustrated & aggravated that I did not get to his residence until 5:30, but there was nothing that I could do about the traffic & the accident. I did my best to make it to the appointment on time. Hopefully the traffic will not be this awful once they get the modern lanes of traffic finished; Right now my pal and I have 3 east & 3 west bound lanes, but at the start of the year, my pal and I will have five on each side.
