There isn't any traffic on the roads Friday AM.
Why ?
Does this happen anywhere else, or is it just some Raleigh/Cary/Durham thing ?
I know it's not the work schedule of a single large employer, because I've worked all over the area, and it happens no matter which direction I'm going. My lovely wife "works" at home on Fridays, but she's the only person I know who does that. Stores are open on Fridays, so I know the retail people have to go in. Schools are open on Fridays, so it can't be that kid-shuttle traffic isn't running.
What's going on?
D.C. is the same today. Maybe everyone else got raptured.
Raptured … ha ha … brilliant.
oh yeah… it’s Good Friday. duh. that’s why i got out of work @ 3 (thanks, Mr Jesus!)
but it’s light every other Friday, too! i swear!
In the UK we get Good Friday and Easter Monday off work. Thanks for the 4-day weekend Christianity!
but it’s light every other Friday, too! i swear!
People taking three-day weekends. Monday is usually lighter than usual around here too. For some reason, traffic on Wednesday is always the worst, both here in DC and when I was commuting from SF to Silicon Valley one summer.
