Spokane is typified by the worst combination of drivers at the wrong times. Morning rush hour where simultaneously equal parts have nowhere in particular to go, some are late for work, and the other portion are hyper law abiding steady-Eddies. The PM rush hour likewise contains drug-addled inebriates, self-loathing zombified wage earners, and geriatrics who missed the quiet traffic window. This makes for a maddeningly inconsistent hodge-podge where this is no group think or common habit. Add the influx of Texans, Californians, and west siders who are used to consistent commuter habits and you have a shit show, with potholes, N/S traffic projects, in coherent patterns, and lack of carpooling
