In reply to the discussion: Pregnant Iowa woman in labor forced to ground at gunpoint by cops for speeding on way to hospital [View all]In the case I was talking about it was hard to get around town because of all the traffic. Traffic that wasn't going to be stopping anyway so why bother. All they were doing was clogging up the streets. Sometimes there would be a line of 18 wheelers half a mile long coming through town and the only stop light just slowed them down to the point most locals were taking their business else where. Where they didn't have to worry with all that traffic. Once the traffic was redirected the town found out that the locals were more than enough to keep the town thriving. The road I'm talking about is the main hiway from northwest Arkansas to Tulsa ok. Lots of people live in northwest Arkansas that work in Tulsa ok. Which is absurd to me because of the hour and a half to two hour drive each way. Makes for a long day. Sure its pretty over in Arkansas but not that pretty. From 5 am to 9am going west toward Tulsa and from 3 pm to 6 pm going back east the hiway is full of Arkansas tagged autos. Most of them will only have one person in it too.
I live a block right off the same hiway a few miles west of my hometown and when the traffic was on this hiway it was dangerous to pull out on the road from our street. Now its a breeze and we thank our lucky stars every time we go somewhere. Bow down to the traffic gods
