In the past decade would you say BR traffic has gotten better, worse or stayed about the same?

There is already a thread going on about Baton Rouge traffic , and there is a certain group around here that uses topics like this as an excuse to post negative comments about B.R.

I see. Well that wasn't my intention of starting this thread. Just wanted to know more specifically from folks who actually lived there. I saw another traffic thread but it didn't answer my question so I decided to start my own and post a poll. Have a good day.

It comes and goes. Does seem to be more of it, but then Livingston and Ascension have become significantly larger in population than they used to be.....

As bad as it is here, I had the misfortune to drive in Washington, D. C. traffic last month, and wondered who, in their right minds, anyway, would want to live there? Granted, I grew up there, but the part of Fairfax country that my family lives in was mostly rural back in 1960 when they moved there. Today, though, it is totally urban, with an 8-lane highway in front of their housing development where a two lane country road used to be.

The difference is, though, that the drivers up there are far more courteous than they are here, and the cops write tickets for people using their cell phones while driving. That means that despite the unbelievable amount of traffic up there, it moves in a more orderly fashion than it does here.
