What traffic?

Current mood: no wonder my brakes quit

One way, perfect light-changing patterns obviously designed by a brilliant transportation engineer (or else my county finally ponied up the cash to buy a decent piece of transportation modeling software, which eats a whole lot less) to facilitate smooth, nonstop traffic flow. Smart government!

The other way, brake-grinding angst, as every single light turns red just as you pull up - if you don't speed excessively. Incentive = speed excessively! Stupid gov' mint!

The problem? It's the same government. The two routes are less than 3 miles apart and most days, I drive on both :-(
