Me too, because I now have yet another reason why I'm glad I don't live in or near Atlanta.

I will tell everyone on the board here, and anyone else that cares to listen - If you're not 120% confident in your driving at high speeds, don't come to Atlanta.

I live about 35 miles north, in the foothills. Right now, my job is inside "the perimiter". The average speed down the I to get to my office, during non-rushhour traffic is around 90MPH.
The perimiter, jokingly referred to as the "Atlanta Motor Speedway", averages about the same, with 50% more traffic.
Yes, it's extremely dangerous. I know - I almost got seriously hurt in an accident. (I'll also add here that, I was a "professional driver" that you see on TV - when I lived out in Colorado.) The lefts lanes, in particular, because you drive no farther away than 5-6 feeth from a 8-foot high cement wall. There's no where to go.

This is one of the reasons I'm looking for a position up near me, or even more up north. I cannot stand traffic - too many individual items on the road to keep track of.

Noting scares me more when, up ahead, you see a large cloud of brake and rubber smoke. You know you had better stop there, or you're more than likely toast.

Now, don't get the wrong impression - it's not all fast. Hell - during rushhour, you'll never get above 30MPH.

When I did this fiasco, I was on a state divided highway, even closer to the mountains. There was no traffic on the road.

Me.
