Been here since 1982.

Of course there is a difference depending on highway and time of day but “wide open” is a ridiculous statement.

This is where knowing the surface streets inside the city can make a huge difference.

I visited my sister 2 Fridays ago. She lives in West Midtown off of Howell Mill. When I left her place, I was.going to get on 75 at Howell Mill. Nope. It was clogged and not moving. So I immediately use the service road to get to Northside Drive, take that to Marietta St, through Downtown to Courtland and through Georgia State, turn onto Capitol Ave.just before Grady, and get back on the Connector at Washington St. Home in 45 minutes.

It helps tremendously to know surface Streets. Nobody takes the time to do so.
