Orlando...If you wanna see pics of a normal day!!!! (Deltona: travel, work)

[Magnulus]

That whole I-4 corridor through Orlando has horrible traffic. That's just bad. My cousin from Tulsa when he visited said he'd never complain about rush hour in Tulsa again. Rush hour in Tulsa is like normal traffic in Orlando.

Most of the time I don't even go over there... no reason to do so. At most I go to East Orange County or Winter Springs I don't want to get into that mess if I can avoid it. Calling I-4 an expressway is sort of an oxymoron most of the time.

Yep...I was only 19 when I got married too and have 3 kids now. We lived right off of Cranes Roost at the time so Altamonte has good memories. They actually started that Eye sore that year....1999!

No offense, but where was Orlando? All I saw were freeways, cars, guardrails, traffic, etc. I think these pictures are actually detrimental to Orlando. But, maybe that is the way life is there. Traffic. Sorry about this criticism. It is not personal. I just didn't get it.

The title was the only way i could get people to look at the pics and then i kinda said in my intro that it was the normal everyday trip on I-4 that people make here everyday to and from work...so if any outsider ever wants to talk about how things are or look going down I-4 through the whole area then they can just come to this thread....what else can i name this thread?

you could have named it 'traffic the day before thanksgiving' because face it yesterdays trafic was not normal, i travel i4 every day and yesterday was definatly worse than normal

Thats funny I drive past the graffiti up white house every day going to work on I-4. I guess I am not the only one who notices that crap.

Take some pics of the hood around our famous citrus bowl. Don`t forget the dirty construction down town areas with homeless and drug addicts.

There is more to life here then that but traffic is a problem.

Its not too much different though.....from 3pm - 7pm everyday its just like the pics....only difference yesterday was it started at 12:30pm - 1pm...trust me i drove everyday from Deltona to the DeVry campus near mall of Millinea to go to and from school at all times of the weeks ....and it was busy any time i drove from 3pm - 7pm and now there are more people living here

there were tons of people on i-4 that day!!! tons!!! like normal, haha. but they seem to be fixing the main problem near downtown which is the 408 interchange. that's what all the construction is for, to fix that slowdown and when that's fixed it should be better throughout, ugh!!

up to speed my "usual" trip on i-4 takes about 10 mins, on a normal rush hour 20-30. THAT IS NOTHING compared to waht i used to sit through getting from nj to ny. i would be waiting in traffic for an hour sometimes.

i still wish it went faster haha...

how far do you travel on I-4 everyday? which exits do you take?
