All I know is that the Mix Master is always a clusterfuck.Meh, Danbury gets worse. Danbury's high growth rates in the last decade and more people work in NYC, Wetchester, etc. I was driving from NY to Hartford, and Danbury was backed up between exits 2-7 at 3:30PM and 8-11 at 4:00PM. Never driven it at 5:00PM, but I have a feeling it all creates one big giant backup.
Not related to traffic, but something I never got about the 405 was why it was made in such a way that driving along it made me feel like my wheels were square.
Route 8 isn't so bad, almost all of that entire road from Bridgeport to the Massachusetts line is glorious. The only bad stretch is the Commodore Hull bridge in Derby and you can take comfort from knowing that once you get through the rest is smooth sailing.
None of them can come close to the traffic you would experience as a Chinese driver.
Yup LIE is a pain in the ass as well.
I think the worst single intersection/bottleneck may just be in Chicago where 290 hits 90/94.
That said, I suspect that as a whole, other routes may be worse due to a large number of bad bottlenecks rather than "the worst bottleneck + other less significant bottlenecks"
I do agree that is a pretty terrible bottleneck, but the Dan Ryan isn't that bad. I don't go down that way often, but every time it isn't too terrible.
I-35 in Houston says howdy.
Yes, extremely difficult.pretty tough to drive on i-35 in houston, i agree.
I voted for I-76 Philadelphia.
Horrible horrible traffic.
