KC isn't bad for a metro area, but it does have its share of choke points. Fortunately, my daily commute of 6 miles avoids them all. I'm well south of the bulk of the rush hour traffic, with both my home and my employer south of the notorious Grandview Triangle. I had my one-time experience in S. CA back in June 1995, visiting my brother during his short stay in San Diego. I hit morning rush near San Bernardino, and my car (which handled the mountains and desert quite well) blew 3 freeze plugs and two hoses on I-215. I spent all day in the shop due to the parts requiring transport from Los Angeles. The positive effect of that was crossing the Mojave Desert (I-15) at night. That made for some interesting lighting sights upon entering Nevada. Regards. G.R. Van | Kansas City | http://www.mylandofmisery.com/roads/
