Bumper to Bumper Traffic isn’t mandatory. Maintain a proper distance and Fuel+braking+Fuel+Braking will be never be an issue :rolleyes: Atlanta. Worse than NYC and Chicago combined. ---

Worse than NYC and Chicago combined. Agreed ATL sucks hard during trafic. I now live in GA and going through ATL reminds me of Pittsburgh traffic. Except it’s worse. Also I agree with said statement above ---

yeah this is total bullshit if you ask me. Traffic has never in history been this bad due to asswipes that can’t just “drive” when they’re supposed to. Everyone has to be doing something else. No wonder road rage is the way it is. Are any of these “lawmakers” ever in rush hour traffic? no way [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/aggressive-driving-give-me-a-break/189357.md?page=1)
