I may have a real post later. But here, have something that made me happy.

A few months ago, in response to a drag racing accident, the State Highway Administration thought it'd be a great idea to turn a three-lane expressway taking in traffic from two on-ramps into a one-lane bottleneck with NO MERGE AREA WHATSOEVER. As you can guess, there were a few fender-benders and I got nervous taking that way home - it was like taking my life in my hands every time I tried to merge onto the one-lane bottleneck that would reopen into three lanes less than a fourth of a mile later. Way to hit the overkill button, people.

Yesterday afternoon, I took that way home again and found out that common sense had prevailed.

tl;dr YAY I CAN TAKE THE HIGHWAY HOME WITHOUT THE ONRAMP MAKING ME FEAR FOR MY LIFE.
