Thanks for your comment. I know what you mean.
The carpool lanes don’t help. Driver etiquette, and desperation to be in or out of the carpool lane frustrates all the regular over abundance of silliness.
I basically tell myself that if it involves a freeway it’s gonna take an hour to get there. 🤷‍♂️
I deal with tourists and I remind them to enjoy one area at a time. I say if they’re going to Orange County plan to be there all day and avoid traffic by leaving after eight. I tell them to visit everything in LA and save time and avoid traveling back-and-forth between counties.
Most people appreciate it.
