/dev/null Posted August 16, 2006 Posted August 16, 2006 I'm sitting in Wendy's drive thru and see their dumpster in my rear view mirror. The Waste Management log backwards looks like MW. Seeing garbage and the letters MW at the same time made me think of Mike Williams Why do people with NASCAR bumper stickers drive slow? I passed a truck with like 5 NASCAR stickers on it, doing 35 in a 50 yeah, i'm bored

People are afraid of the high rise bridge and go 35 over it causing a massive backup. I hate Virginia drivers.

Just Jack Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 There were alot of idiots on the road today I noticed. My favorite was the kid that decided he wasn't going to wait his turn at the 4-way stop, and instead follow the car that was right ahead of him, making me almost t-bone him.

Then again, doesn't Austin have a new infrastructure?

Dan Gross Posted August 17, 2006 Posted August 17, 2006 Funny you mention the Waste Management logo. There was a time where I'd see the WM and think Willis McGahee. I think it was the combo of the initials and the almost-kinda-MiamiUish (for someone who doesn't follow college football) colors....

It splits in the north part of downtown into two decks, but since it connects in the middle of freaking downtown, it creates traffic problems. I-35 goes up the east part of the city, and mopac runs along the west part. Those are the two main roads, and way overcrowded. A big problem is that they have absolutely nowhere to expand I-35. There are stores and buildings along both sides the whole way. Sad part is, I've experienced traffic jams on I-35 at 3AM before here in Austin.
