Empty roads, post apocalypse

[Anonymous]

So I take it from today’s traffic that Friday only feds were working in the office.

It was so empty today driving in at rush-hour or is it just my route.

Are we mind readers? What is your route?

You do realize there is a Government shutdown right?

It was WONDERFUL driving in early to mid 2020 cause most of the roads everywhere were barely traveled with all the people hiding in their homes. Best vacation time ever!

Wed-Friday have been light, and Thursday was super duper light with MCPS closed.

That said, the past few weeks the reversible on Canal have been a mess at Arizona because people haven't been paying attention to the lane switch.

My point was yes govt is shutdown, but private industry is not. And clearly, NONE of them were ever driving into the office on a Friday (I feel like most private workers telework 3x week except Amazon?)

So ALL the traffic is essentially Fed workers most of the time. Because we never telework now.

Traffic is just as bad as covid times. Wish everyone would get back to work. I suspect when the first payless payday passes things will get better.

Huh?

In the midst of Covid, traffic was very light. If “everyone would get back to work”, traffic will be much much worse.
