Just spent an hour and a half trying to get on 190 from HWY 1, turned around. Thank god I don't live in that hellhole. Worst designed city in the world.

I would like to add that I10 to 610 through New Orleans is absolutely depressing. What a sad place.

Should have waited another hour. You haven't seen anything yet.

You weren't in Baton Rouge. That's West Baton Rouge Parish. Baton Rouge is in East Baton Rouge Parish. Reserve your judgment until you get across the river.

Wait until the daily accident happens and shuts down the interstate.

Hurricane evacuations are a disaster within a disaster.
I'm now fortunate to have a flex-time job, but only after enduring the I10-I12 and I12-Amite bridge construction.

What is it that causes 1 at 190 to stop completely? Going left especially.

You must be from Texas.

Because Texas people drive like shite and don't understand why everyone else is a dick to them on the road.

From looking at Google maps, Baton Rouge isn't nearly the disaster brewing on the Basin.

They're showing THREE separate wrecks on I-10 WB.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! frick EVERYONE!

EDIT: Must've been a glitch. Now they're showing just the one wreck fricking everything up.

Tons more cars than usual going through BR due to heading to the beach for the 4th & Essence Fest in New Orleans. Recipe for a bigger disaster than usual.
