A Driver's Worst Nightmare

Imagine this for a moment: this is the holiday you've been waiting for. You enter the car, exit your parking, go on the main road, accelerate to a nice 100 km/h, and then brake and stop. Ahead of you there are thousands of cars doing exactly the same thing: waiting. Welcome to the drivers' worst nightmare: a traffic jam.

Yes, this can be quite annoying. More accurately, extremely annoying. Even crawling traffic can make a driver go mad. Most accidents happen during bumper-to-bumper traffic, and for a good reason. Drivers lose focus. Moreover, cars are very close to each other. One second of turning the head, and your cars meets your neighbor's car.

I drove through quite a few traffic jams in my life, and I can tell you that it's really a driver's worst nightmare. Try to avoid them whenever possible.

So how do you avoid a traffic jam? Make sure you know what times are prone to congestion, and drive there before rush hour. Just try to be original with your time, otherwise thousands of other drivers will be there with you. And yes, this will cause another traffic jam. Not nice.

Have a great, flowing weekend!
