The work commute from the East Bay into SF via the Bay Bridge looks AWFUL due to the non-electronic toll system and you just get a pile up near the toll booths.
Yes, that is exactly where I encountered the worst traffic. They need to fix that toll system.
It's not the toll taking as much as it is the stupid metering lights afterwards timed sooooo slowly that it backs up the toll plaza.
And imo the return trip in the evening is far worse.
I believe that because you have to get out of those god awful city streets. You better hope there is not an accident on the Bridge. I remember reading a story several months back that traffic is so backed up in the city because of lane closures due to accidents on the Bridge that when heading towards the Bridge you could probably find dates in traffic downtown.
I think the thing with Boston is that nowhere doesn’t have considerable choline, but it moves. Traffic generally moves in Boston but you have to drive really close to the other car and make no mistakes or everything falls apart. It’s just a hard place to drive overall and roads everywhere are filled to capacity��
+1. The guy in the wrong lane that has to get over impedes traffic as much as anything.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying traffic in Boston isn't bad. It's awful. But I don't think it matches the other cities mentioned and it seems that some of the data posted earlier backs that up.
