I’ve been in bumper to bumper for the past hour in the HOV lane on a freeway with six lanes in either direction. And also why the hell do you end up getting being sent onto another freeway even if you’re in the left lane.

Welcome to California. Now you know why we avoid LA as much as possible.

This is why I hate it when something requires going past LA.

This is why I believe that nothing good happens south of Point Conception.

The kicker is that I wasn’t ever really any closer to the center of LA than Irvine.

It doesn’t let up until you get north of LAX and then it starts over again in some other spot on the 101. Which way are you headed?

It’s a test of your clutch foot’s strength and endurance!

It didn’t let up until we past Redlands, headed east to Phoenix.

Epic. As a point of clarification this car is an automatic, and I’m a passenger. I’m not posting to Oppo while driving.

Nasty. I hate driving up there. I actually quit a job that required me to drive in LA...I was sitting in a traffic jam at 2:00 am on the 405 when I finally decided that I’d had enough of the ridiculous place.
