I take Queensborough North bound every morning, had to double back over Patullo and take River road into Tilbury. Freakin' gong show, it was literally bumper to bumper from the begining of River road (by Scott road) all the way into Tilbury. So slow, I almost dozed of about 50 times.

QFT!!!

holy fuck, Im glad I no longer have to cross any major bridges to work. But vancouver is essentially a group of islands or land pieces that are divided by rivers and to get from one municipality to another you need to take a damn bridge. Honestly, I hope we get more bridges, soo many bottlenecks during rush hour.

I've worked all over the place and needed to take all 3 surrey bridges, the tunnel, second narrows and if any of those places get screwed you are basically Shiet out of luck for an hour.

I seriously hope they re-do the pattullo bridge and make it bigger after the port mann is done.

It pisses me off that translink has no money for this cause they are inefficiently operated.

Its die, not died. In this case more appropriately it should be "did they shoot the fucker?"

Incidents like this remind me of how nice it is to start work at such an early hour... And not having to cross any bridges. based local commute.

As a guy who would not like to be threatened with death by a person who I may have made angry, I am not upset at the oppressor getting shot.

Cool story bro.

Maybe you should start a petition to let "mentally unstabled" people have an annual salary of 150k as well.

What are you talking about, most metal patients get locked up and work for Chinese factory wages.

I know a large percentage of Americans believe in ghosts but thinking that this robot has a soul and the threat justifies a shot to his organs makes me think you may not be mentally stable as well.
