I HATE AUCKLAND TRAFFIC

I left work at 5:15 pm hoping to get home early. Just before hitting the main road, the radio reported that there was a big accident on the motorway and that the traffic was backed up all the way to the city. Not wanting to sit in traffic for ages, I decided to take the "scenic route" through the suburbs, which was longer but hopefully the traffic moves faster while everyone else tried the motorways....

Big mistake!! Almost everyone decides to avoid the motorway altogether. The traffic was even worse than on the motorway. Cars were virtually stationary. I didn't get home until 7:15 pm.

Argh, Auckland traffic sucks arse!! Unless you're a boy racer or a P user, you can't negotiate your way through packed Auckland traffic. So if you hear word of a big accident on the motorway, stay where you are, don't even try taking alternative routes, don't even go home!
