TRAFFIC ALERT: Going to the mountains?  Lookout for closures on the Blue Ridge Parkway!


about the daily commute

Hi, there.  I'm Brian Shrader, the On-Time Traffic fellow on WRAL News. 

I created this group as a place to talk about all things traffic!  Problem spots?  Annoying backups?  Ideas for the DOT?  Ideas for saving money on gas? 

Join our group, and let's talk!

Let's get back to blockhead's comment....There are signs everywhere that say 'SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT'. None of them say unless you're going the speed limit. Move over, it's the law. Yes, the law. Signs with black borders are regulatory signs, just like speed limit signs..and you know what...the 'slower traffic' signs have black borders.

There doesn't have to be a sign everywhere for the law to exist. Have you ever read the paragraph in the handbook that says 2 lane secondary roads have a speed limit of 55 mph even if there isn't a sign?

All I can say is, let's start using some common sense when we're driving...maybe then you won't get so many 'salutes'...

Tincup... Many factors come into play here, but in general, traffic on westbound 40 (Inner Beltline) slows down around Gorman Street and remains slow until you get to Highway 54. Speeds pick up considerably as you head toward Wade and Harrison.

Hey all~ I have a question regarding morning commute traffic. I will be heading around the bottom of the beltway(440) from Zebulon to Cary (i know, huge commute) exit 290, around 8 am. I have heard the traffic gets bad on the Cary side. Can anyone tell me hwo bad it really gets? I ddi the trip today in 40 minutes but that was at 10 am. thoughts on 8am? I am new to the area so any help would be greatly appreciated.

TY!

Made: It should be lawful, as long as you were on public property. Of course, we'd ask you not to post anything graphic.

GM Brian! I got a question for you....

Q. Is it lawfull to take pivtures of an accident scene and post them on here in a blog? If not, what about sending them to WRAL for their use?

The reason I ask is because I could have gotten some good shots yesterday of an accident involving a moped and it's rider who was laying in the middle of the street from his injuries, surrounded by emergency personell.

Just curious. Thought the moped accident would have made an excellent satfey blog.

Can you tell me how many tickets have been issued to drivers who do not turn on their headlights while driving with their windshield wipers on? I'll bet NONE!!

What gas station here in Raleigh are limiting gas because of hurricane IKE

Hey, Linda... sorry that I didn't see your note in time! I was focused almost solely on TV coverage during Hanna and didn't have a chance to check here. ;)

hi brian i was just woundering if there is any reports about any flooding around granville county? i hope you have a good day..
