I drive almost 40 km to work and it usually takes 25-30 minutes, also depends on what I'm sharing the road with.
At one point I was driving about 70km one way and occasionally had to contend with mining equipment (trucks with parts of excavators much bigger than the transport truck or the large mining vehicles).
Now it's farming equipment and slow pokes.

AND? The farm equipment are the fast ones?

It does seem that way.
At least the farming equipment is useful when it gets to its destination. -

Sounds like upstate NY. I drive ~20 miles to work everyday and 4 out of 5 times I get stuck behind a car going 30-35 in a 55. Frustrating... and they don't have passing lanes where I live so no way to get around them.

You get that in the Texas cities. Upstate NY pokey drivers have nothing on the slow people here.

This. This is so true. Oh, and NYers aren't terrified of rain...Texans? When it rains you'd think that it was a white out. I've seen NYers driving faster on city roads in the middle of a blizzard and being totally safe than Texans on the highway after it's been raining for HOURS because the ground is wet.

So adding competition is bad for competition?

Everyone in Atlanta turns instantly stupid when it rains... or when it looks like it might rain. And it rains here, with regularity.

A lot of people here seem to think that their cars gain 500Kw when it rains. All kinds of stupid stuff. Cupcakes.
