Yeah, hopefully it won't be delayed that far into the future. That would be more in line with the construction schedules found in MA.

UGHHH...i hate driving in manchester. the exit 6 rotary on the everett turnpike is the worst!

I'll take driving in Manchester over driving in Nashua any day of the week. Nashua is so spread out and it takes forever to get anywhere. Everywhere you go in Nashua there is traffic.

It doesn't get any worse than Nashua when it comes to traffic in NH.

Candia is a great town. The only thing that I don't like about it is that the kids go to Manchester high schools but the way things are are going with Manchester schools that may change by the time my 2 and 3 year old go to high school.

Chester is another great town. I actually like it better than Candia but we couldn't afford it at the time.

What are the non-official driving rules here? I don't want a ticket but I don't want to get run over either. Thanks all.

Rule # 1, if no one is on the road, stay in right lane.
Rule # 2, if youre only going with the flow of traffic stay in the right lane
Rule # 3, don't slow down the speed lane, so stay on the right unless youre passing.

79 MPH and under in 65 MPH zone will not get you a ticket..
69 MPH in a 55 MPH etc...
North of concord on 93 is 70MPH sign since Jan 1st this yr, I have yet to test the cops at 84 MPH, but I feel there is a 14 MPH buffer without the threat of blue lights in the rearview mirror.
Get a escort passport 9500 ix radar detector and you wont ever have a cop pop out of nowhere.. I get a lengthy heads up, so move over and let me by. If youre smart youll just pop right back behind me and use my radar hahaha

Basically stay in the right lane if you can.. Sometimes people have legitimate reasons to be going so fast.. So the attitude of "Im doing the speed limit, they can go around" is crazy. Just get out of the way!

Trashua is the worst part of NH. I wish MA made it official and took it over... It practically is MA.. Good luck driving around Trashua before Christmas.. all the holiday shoppers make DW highway a dead stop...
