Common Commute

Since we've (and by "we" I mean Becca and I) started doing traffic... I have to say I really feel for our morning commuters.  Traffic is a foreign concept to us.  Rather, *sitting* in traffic is foreign.  It doesn't happen often... and when I find myself in a back-up, look out.  My patience goes right out the window... which is usually closed because I have my a/c cranked so high.  But, you know what I mean.  It's just frustrating... especially when I'm used to flying (at reasonable speed) down the 10 or the 202.
    Today was the busiest day I've had to contend with from a traffic anchoring perspective.  Honestly, I feel like as soon as one accident happened, there was another and another... and snowball effect of crashes all around the Valley.
    I guess it got me thinking... what's your beef with traffic?  Do you have any - or is it just something you swallow like a lukewarm cup of coffee in your old commuter mug?  What would serve you the best when it comes to getting around town?  I can't make any promises.  I'm just the messenger, if you will.  But, it always helps to have more than enough info.  Plus, who knows.  Maybe we can take some of the best suggestions and implement them.  Anything to help you out... because if this morning is any indication of how it goes out there... you need all the help you can get.

I had noticed that you and Rebecca had been doing traffic lately and was wondering if it is permanent.  No suggestions (yet), I'm glad you do traffic frequently during the show as I'm sure it is a great help to commuters.  Good luck!!
