My guess is Houston, but this looks equivalent to I-95/395 south from DC to Fredericksburg, 7 days a week.

Yeah, except for the palm trees, this looks like I-95. Anyone who's lived in the DC area will tell you the horrors of being stuck in a traffic jam at 11 PM. And if you throw in an ice storm or two, its torture that should be banned by the Geneva Convention

It is Houston, US 290, inbound toward 610 Loop, passing W. 43rd street where the Petco is. This looks like an old video. Here is the road today, additional lanes added:

This is why I love KC. You can get all over the metro in the amount of time it takes someone else to go 5 miles. The commute on 35/435 the exception.

Correct. So easy to get around KC.

Give me a smaller city any day anywhere. I just absolutely hate traffic congestion on a daily basis. I don't like congestion, period. But to each his or her own. Some people clearly consider it an acceptable trade off for the positives of living in a larger metro area and that's fine by me.

I'll just visit - and make sure I'm not out and about during peak traffic hours.

Pittsburgh has some of the highest per capita freeway lane miles in the US, and the lowest traffic per freeway mile.
