Carmageddon, Day 9

So now that section of I-5 is down to two lanes. And the result? Some slowing, of course. But no "backups to Tacoma" that we heard on the news for several days leading up to the construction.

Do you know what really makes traffic slow in this region?

1. Take a fender bender between two or three cars.
2. Set that on the side of a busy road.
3. Watch as every single driver slows down to 20% of normal speed as they take their time watching people write down insurance information for each other.
   

Grr...
