Sometimes, the traffic report comes on in time.

[kyrielle]

In the morning, I flip between two radio stations that give frequent
traffic reports, trying to get one before I am committed to the
freeway (in case I don't want to be). This morning, when I turned the
car on, the number on the clock ended in 9. That's bad, because one of
my two options gives reports on the 5s - which happen to be 8s on that
clock, which is off a bit.

So I went to the other one. I was most of the way up Stafford and
about to turn on 65th, when they came on and did traffic. A semi had
overturned on I-5 northbound at Terwilliger and was blocking all
lanes, police were diverting traffic off at 217.

1) I need the 'B' exit for which 217 is the 'A'. It was unclear
whether I could get to it.

2) I could just imagine what that area (and everything past it, as no
one was getting much of anywhere past it) would look like.

I didn't head for the freeway....
