I was curious if anyone has driven the new 805 Freeway, 5 Freeway, 23 Lane Super Highway connector in San Diego? Is it helping to alleviate traffic in Southern San Diego County?

I didn't drive this portion of the freeway during rush hour so I don't know how much it has helped the commute. I can tell you that it was pretty amazing to see so many freeway lanes going in the same direction.

As sick as it sounds, I'd love to see what a 23 lane traffic jam would look like.


Here's a before and after of "The Merge" (Numbers depict number of lanes)

Try the U.S./Mexico border in San Ysidro/Tijuana.

Yikes! I've actually done and seen that, and it's no fun.
