Good point. That’ll teach em.
You bring up another interesting thing I learned.
At one point for a few years, I was driving 30 miles on the freeway each way to work. I admit, out here that’s actually pretty tame. Some folks drive a lot more each way.
I had never realized how much impact schools have on freeway traffic. During school breaks, the traffic is substantially lighter on the freeways.
A friend at work mentioned it. I took notice and sure enough, the days schools were on special holiday, the traffic was much lighter.
I have two children each in a school at an end of LA County. They are both so perfect for my children and it’s only for this year, so I drive 100 miles or so a day three days a week. It’s worth it. But yeah, I’m not on the road if there is a school holiday.
