I hate traffic too and luckily in the mornings when we drive to work the traffic leads towards the city and when we drive home the traffic is again on the other side of the road. That's one more positive side of working out of town 😃
The weather was bad and so there haven't been many people on the road, that's true. It was cold and windy and later it even snowed.

Ah, over here we call it "running counter traffic" Hannes and stragely, we do the same.
Just not this morning, as I had a very bad night, maybe 3 hours sleep and at 6:30am we were on the road to a tyre business that is run by a friend at the airport.
I figured that thec traffic will only start at 8am, as most peaople start work at 9am.
What a mistake, as it's a national highway and a lot of traffic was on the road.
Bad weather is the best times to get out as most people are allergic to bad weather lol.
Cheers and thanks!
If you drive into our town between 7 and 8 am you will certainly stuck in traffic and the same will happen between about 4 and 6 pm when you drive out of town, but since we are only a small town it isn't that bad.
That's true and I love it most when the forecast says it would be bad, but then they are wrong and I have places for me alone 😉

And when there's an accident it's even worse, as everyone slows down to "rubberneck" when they drive past the accident scene. Backing up traffic for miles. A normal 30 minute drive to the airport can take 2 hours when there's an accident.
Yeah, somtimes the weathercasters are wrong and it works in our favor lol.
Cheers and thanks!
Such people get fined here if they hinder rescue workers or the police.

Over here the medical people are robbed when they respond to call outs and people don't get fined for "rubbernecking". A real mess if you ask me.
Cheers and thanks!
Well, they always come here, but these curious other people disturb and they even take photos or videos.

Yes, that's even worse especially when they stop to take photos and videos.
Closer to Cape Town city, the traffic is very dense and that's why we seldom go there. Besides there is much more nature and animals in the rural areas and that's why we like it out here.
Far away from the maddening crowds!
Cheers and thanks!
