My Commute

It's only a 10-minute commute to work each way for me every day. Not too bad at all. I really have nothing to complain about it, especially that I know many have to endure a lot worse drive regularly.
You see, I'm fortunate to not have an office downtown or where the CBD (Central Business District) is. Those cars stuck in traffic on my image are heading that way. I get to pass those other cars while driving on my empty lane that is taking me to the exit near my work.
The worst thing for me is probably just how the bright sun would shine directly on my face blinding my view. But I could take care of that with my sun visor and cool glasses to reduce the glare.

@sishy7 Yep, the freeways out here just get worse - more and more jam packed each year. My sister and her husband take the train to work too (they are in Monrovia), but where they are situated, the trains are convenient. Out here, it just seems like a hassle - we're too used to driving our own cars.

Driving East into the sun is a little bit of a hardship. As you say, visors or sunglasses help. Adjusting your time a little can sometimes help as well. Leave a little earlier or later.

@sishy7 It may be that there are fewer trees providing shade beside the road.

@GardenGerty Our trees are all cut back from the road here.

You somehow managed to find out something that is not nice with your ten minute drive - the sun's glare. What is this world coming to I say?
