For anyone that might be traveling, you'll want to avoid I77 North at Exit 4.

I was just sitting in a long backup due to an accident. It took me 45 minutes to get from Rock Hill back to my office on Tyvola.

It shows you the freeway speeds in real time. I used this all the time when I lived in Los Angeles. I don't use it here in Charlotte too much because the traffic here is nothing compared to LA. You can check it out if you like.

Looks like a good resource. I remember living in LA and waiting for the Sig Alert report before I left for work in the morning. Much easier to look this stuff up on the Internet.
