I live/commute in the Los Angeles area of California, rated the worst area for traffic in the United States (also on top 5 San Francisco, CA Houston, TX Atlanta, GA). I live 25 miles from work, mapquest.com says my drive should only take 21 minutes yet I have to leave an hour and 15 minutes before I start work to get there on time!! Stop and go traffic all the way there and same thing all the way home!! Oh and I drive a stick shift so that makes it even worse!!! For all my life I lived within a couple miles of where I worked until May 2009 when we bought our home and I got this awful commute. It's brought an element of stress and frustration to my life that I NEVER anticipated, it's terrible. I know we have members on here from all over the USA and the world so I was curious to know what kind of traffic you deal with everyday.
