Haiku Friday: Cities with the worst traffic


 Traffic isn't usually that bad in Minneapolis-- I have found that rush hour ends by about 5:45, which would be laughable in some cities.

But let's talk about the bad ones. Here, I will go first:

Detroit, you scare me
Why do they drive ninety-five
On I-94?

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern and have some fun!


Comments:
I-76
Jammed on a Sunday morning
Welcome to Philly
 
Chicago’s the worst
For real, we are number one!
Get used to inching


 
My father’s rusted
Chevy truck: the best evah
for Boston traffic!

 
Live close to your job
In a smaller house; get
home before its dark!
 
In Tampa I was
grateful, a reverse commute
Against traffic flow

Malfunction Junction
Is worse twenty years later
A log jam of cars

They have added lanes
Hoping to alleviate
But to no avail

We moved to NC
I-40 was much better
But not anymore

Today I drive my
Country roads and alertly
Watch for the wildlife
 
Chicago gridlock
Thank you, Stephen A. Douglas
Eighteen Fifty Four
