traffic

Look, no one likes traffic, but some of us handle it better than others.

Another week begins in our lovely community. Let's get it started with a quick burst of news headlines, equipped with a very lovely news anchor!

The last thing I want to watch any day of the week is video of traffic, especially traffic from around here. Yet, I found myself staring at this video, kind of like a stoner stuck on slo-mo.

You may think that bike lanes are improving the safety of biking, whether it be for sport, exercise or leisure. However, this guy has put a camera on his bike in order to show you that you are wrong. Dead wrong.

Now that it is 'officially' summer in the Capital Region, that means the Northway will be a little more packed with vacationing travelers headed up to Saratoga and Lake George each weekend. But that also means a lot of traffic restrictions and detours as well with several major road projects being completed.

Sometimes when police pull someone ever it’s just a routine traffic violation and they write a ticket. Other times police pull over the Michael Jordan of “mess up your life” drugs and make an arrest.

Am I to believe that this dude actually enjoys the smell of poo?

George Zimmerman -- yes the same Florida neighborhood watchman acquitted in the Trayvon Martin murder trial -- was pulled over for speeding on a highway near Dallas, Texas.

I’m 100% sure Marky Mark is drunk in this video but look at him killing it in the traffic center complete with crappy Philadelphia accent and all. Eat your heart Vince Gallagher out because Wahlberg just might be gunning for your job.

Honestly, there is no reason for traffic to be stopped for a lousy lane merge. Two lanes become one, simple concept!

Gov Cuomo has just announced that the Tappan Zee Bridge near New York City will close at 4PM today (10/29) due to the high winds associated with Sandy. If you're wondering about any possible bridge closings in the Albany area, New York State has a twitter account setup that will display information about bridges across the state. If you don't have Twitter, you can follow along here:

Today while driving the Northway to work, I passed a couple cars and noticed some weird actions happening.  One man was shaving, another was eating and a woman was actually reading a newspaper.  No wonder there are so many accidents on I-87! Now I want to know; "Whats the weirdest thing you do while driving by yourself in a car".  Take the poll or comment freely.
