You apparently didn't have occasion to drive into Cambridge on Route 2
past the Alewife metro station at morning rush hour. I've never seen
anything quite like it. Road rage quite common, horns blaring and
people even driving over the traffic islands to get around folks deemed
a little too slow. During the first few months after I moved to the
Boston area I thought I was going to die of traffic induced stress
before I found an alternate route into Cambridge. But, other than that
particular spot (which has extremely complex intersections fed into by a
high speed road), the drivers are mostly sane and resigned to crawling
to their destinations.
