Good Morning Alex
It is sad to hear that kind of comments about my driving from one of our customer, even when the other 99% at the end of our trip approach to me and congratulate me for a great job dealing with the traffic at that hour. Sorry for this long writing but I will try to explain what really happens.
Yesterday everything seems so great in traffic and I have my arrival time at 5:18 p.m. Maddy and I, always keep checking the traffic especially when we approaching to Austin off Jarrell and we found this:
If we take 45-1 our arrival time will be at 5:40 p.m, taking 130-71 at 5:50 p.m and if we keep on 35 our arrival time will be at 5:25. And by common sense we take…..yes… you guess 35 and I get off on the service road to miss all the traffic on the freeway, but the traffic start slowing down and an accident just happen in front of us, and the only way at that location was to take Red River to Congress with our new time arrival at 5:35, which was fine for Wednesday.

The decade ending 2015 saw a 37.7% increase in population, and growth was 3.0% for the year ending July 2015. Census Bureau estimates show that Austin remains one of the top destinations for migrating talent. Austin ranked first among the 50 largest U.S. metros based on net migration as a percent of total population in 2015. In addition, 7.1% of Austin residents in 2014 lived elsewhere one year earlier. That is also the largest rate among the top 50 U.S. metros.” (Austin Chamber of Commerce 2016-https://www.austinchamber.com/economic-development/austin-profile/population)
Now, having this information of in the current data, we cannot rely in the same data of the past years including routes and times, and if we want to keep that old data, it is necessary then to extend the times of arrival and departure for the convenience of our guests, due to the growing traffic in
The oil boom is a driving force for urbanization, because it leads to population growth in cities like Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Austin. Houston, the largest city in Texas, is one of the world leaders in the petrochemical industry, and its port provides access to the world market. Dallas is the commercial center of the city of Texas, with an emphasis on banking and real estate development. San Antonio of the economy focused on national bases, educational institutions, tourism and medical research. Together, these cities became political position and can help us understand the political economy of the state as a
‘Road Respect’ is an attempt to educate Massachusetts drivers on the dangers of aggressive driving and enforce its decline. The Governor’s Highway Safety Bureau (GHSB), the State Police and over 255 local police departments are participating in the ‘Road Respect’ campaign to make it a success.
...ws of the city of Austin, but it didn’t show the positive thing that the city has. I strongly believe that Austin has gained the opportunity to keep being the capital of Texas. Its diversity of cultures has shown us that people can get along with each other with no problem. The economic growth had generated great amount of big and small businesses that benefit their citizens. The diversity of little business like radio stations, live performances of music and theater presentations have given the people a new perspective of what art is. Historical museums educate along with the school and universities.
El Paso, also referred to as the "sun city", is a beautiful city that is located on the border between Texas and Mexico and lays the farthest city west of Texas. El Paso has a desert climate with beautiful weather where natural disasters are very rare. El Paso is a massive city that has an estimated population of 862,350 making it the 4th largest city in Texas but when you consider the other places in the area the population grows to 2.2 million living in and around the area , although El Paso is a beautiful and large city, it still seems to lack In the entertainment industry.
We believe the increased level of traffic due to the Purple Line construction will intensify an already problematic situation. We ask for a traffic management plan for Capitol View Park to accommodate the increased traffic levels, up to 10,000 cars per day which will need averting as a result
Have you ever wondered how some athletes have gotten so good at a certain sport? Have you ever thought about what they did in order for them to get this good? For some the answer is simple; workout and train. But for others the answer is different; the use of performance enhancing drugs such as steroids. There are some people that argue that steroids should be legalized and allowed in professional sports. Other people argue that steroids should not be allowed. Today I am going to state my opinion and justify my reason. Steroids should not be allowed in professional sports because it can be very dangerous to the athlete’s health, it is a way to gain and un-fair advantage and it can be dangerous in both social and physical aspects.
“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him” (G.K. Chesterton). A soldier is a soldier no matter what. If they fight behind a screen, on the front line, or from a controller as long as they’re protecting this country, the people in it, and the people fighting for it they are honorable. Some think that because one does their fighting from a remote control drone means that they have no understanding of war, and in some ways that is true, but they are still taking someone’s life when they choose to press that button just like the solders on the front line takes someone’s life when they pull the trigger. Both people are fighting the same fight: they love the country they are defending the people in it they just do it from different standpoints. Drones
Imagine dedicating your life to a university not only on the academic level, but also the athletic level. With a full scholarship your time is dedicated to getting to class on time, finishing assignments, and making it to mandatory practices while also maintaining a strict workout schedule. With your day pretty much full of responsibilities, you do not have the time for a job to pay for anything that you may need outside of tuition, books, and housing. If your car breaks down or you run out of gas you have to pay for that out of your own pocket which is fairly difficult when you do not have an income to cover the costs and if you accept money or free services from any businesses, you could lose you eligibility as a NCAA athlete and lose your
The most noticeable inconvenience of driving in Miami is traffic congestion. In fact, because the highways are cluttered with a significant amount of vehicles carpooling is encouraged. For this purpose, high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes were formed. Each weekday, a simple twenty-minute drive turns into an eternal wait for forward progress. With each minute that goes by cars advance less than twenty feet. And while the traffic may open up in some areas, in its entirety I-95 remains congested during the morning and evening hours, as seen in the image where cars on the South Florida Highways line up bumper-to-bumper. The cause for such highway clutter varies, but it is interesting to note the difficulty in explaining highway driving conditions. It is uncertain as to whether the accidents cause traffic congestion or the traffic congestion causes accidents. Either way, the main roads and highways commuters take to work are crowded with drivers. Furthermore, I-95 passes through several commercial districts in the lower Miami area. Many large trucks and commercial vehicles, as well as passenger vehicles, drive to work at these commercial areas. The weekday traffic congestions on the Miami roadways are, in large part, a major inconvenience to commuters, all with intent to arrive early to work.
Only 120 miles divide and connect one of the largest cities in the country and a small south Texas town and the differences and similarities in the transportation, retail shopping, and educational choices in these communities. Houston Texas is the fourth largest metropolitan city in the country with a network of highways and freeways, a variety of retail areas, and several school systems within the city. Victoria Texas is not even half the size of Houston and definitely a more rural community with a slower paced traffic system, fewer retail shops, and a much smaller school system. More than miles separate these two Texas communities and what they have to offer the people that live in those communities.
Ga. 400 made dreams come true for people who moved from 85 north to the city for approximately a decade. Nowadays Ga. 400 has become the metro Atlanta main street facing major traffic jams at peak times. As Baxter Davis said to the Creative Loafing periodic " traffic controls my lifestyle, I have to get up at 6:30 am to get my office in Buckhead at 9:00 am, or I have to wait until 9:00 am to leave home; and if it rains it takes me two hours to get home." Traffic problems as this clear example reflects, involve not only wasting time and rearranging schedules, but they also involve people getting upset and frustrated. Another problem that the traffic brings with it is pollution. When the great number of cars comes to ground-level ozone pollution, the city is one of the countries worst offenders.
I should receive a passing grade in this class because I can write now. Not just an exaggeration, but after another semester of English I finally feel confident that can write. Three of the reasons behind my confidence is I learned, I experienced and best of all I repeated. These three values helped prepare me for what is in store in English 1302 and here is why.

A grading system called Level Of Service (LOS) is used to determine the quality of traffic. The first six letters in the alphabet A-F are used for Level Of Service. The letter A meaning free flowing low traffic density. The letter F meaning forced traffic flow. Traffic affects humans daily because they have places to go and traffic causes drivers to get frustrated or have road rage. Road rage can be very dangerous because other drivers can get physical with each other. Also they can yell at one another. People can even get violent with each other over traffic frustration. For example, a man hit another driver with a blunt object due to road rage. The reason why traffic affects people on a daily basis is because traffic jams can cause parents to be late taking their children to school. On the other hand, traffic can waste gas or charge on a car. For example, if a car is stopped on the road and its idling, that causes the issue of wasted gas or charge on a
