today while I waited for my new rear tyres to be mounted.
This was standing at the side of the road for about 10 minutes... and I let the mundane and boring go by - this just gives an idea of the automotive diversity that is US road traffic - It still amazes me 10 years after I got here. But note how FEW motorcycles there are.
This is a medium duty 6-lane arterial road that basically links residential and commercial areas. Traffic pretty much never stops - 7 x 24... ;)
Oh yeah, and to give our Euro-brothers and sisters an idea of what constitues a "short commute/trip" - many folks around here will travel about 50 miles a day - just up and down this section of road... :lol:
