Traffic bites in the Orlando area

I go to the metro area a lot and the traffic is insufferable. Depending on the time of day, it can take 20 minutes just to move 3 miles. Oak Ridge road is terrible in the afternoon when school lets out. Along with parents picking up their kids, school zones, and stop lights, it's a horrible road to travel. On the UCF campus, students just wander across roads and crosswalks without even looking up from their phones. You have to creep around campus and have eyes on the sides of your head. I hate going there.

Traffic bites everywhere in Central Florida. Even 417 gets plugged up. The road was built to take people around Orlando and I4 traffic if they pay. If it stops moving folks shouldn't be charged because they're not getting what they paid for.
