there’s only about 3 cars waiting at a traffic light.

That's because it's only 3. Try driving up Spaulding around 4:30-5 on a Friday afternoon during the summer or a long weekend when all the MA/NY/CT idiots come up here. And Spaulding narrows from 4-lane to 2-lane undivided at the south 125 exit (Exit 12).

I used to live in Orange County, and I can tell you there are backups that rival any LA freeway. Ditto the Great Bay Bridge between Portsmouth and Dover.

I can just see Hillary Clinton now, saying:

“Thanks to the U.S. Dept. of Justice C.O.P.S. (Community Officer Policeing) initiative in 1996, during my husband’s administration, we were able to fund several police departments in state and local jurisdictions and that’s the main reason why the hostage situation in N.H. was ended successfully with no injuries or deaths. Oh, and it’s Bush’s fault!”
