Traffic Eating Up working Hours in Washington!!!!

Traveling is a term that more often than not augurs pleasant feelings in us. We conveniently seem to distance ourselves from the nasty bits of traveling and we also forget that our day to day ventures in and out of our house is also traveling. Well, if I were to vote one aspect of traveling as the biggest turn off, it would be traffic, without a doubt. Traffics are major spoilsports in this amazing experience. Nobody really enjoy traveling to the work places, and traffic on top of that is like the last straw. Interestingly no matter how developed a city might be, traffic continues to haunt the population.

It is unbelievable but true that in Washington an average driver loses an entire week per year on traveling to and from his office! Experts say that the condition has worsened and there is little improvement in the traffic conditions in the peak hours.

Well, what can we say traffic has become an appendage to the modern commuting man!
