Yesterday, Thursday, I was out and needed to run some errands. In the morning the streets were pretty empty, but then I came to the freeway. It was bumper to bumper stopped traffic. I counted 6 lanes that merged into 2 lanes. And for that reason it took about 30 minutes to go a half mile.
Here is a video of the traffic just to give you an idea
This is typical traffic in Medellin, but because of quarantine and the restrictions it’s been months since I’ve had to drive in it. It’s always a bit interesting to watch the motorcycles, and cyclists squeeze through the traffic.
I was glad I had good music to listen to and it was a beautiful day to be out. Still the traffic and driving in traffic is something I did NOT miss in these past months at home.
