Went to a concert at the Hollywood Bowl a couple of weekends ago. Typically about a 40 minute drive for me to Hollywood when traffic is "normal."
Sunday afternoon, we leave around 4pm. Get stuck on the 605 for 45 minutes between the 405 and the 91 (maybe 6 miles?). Skip across to the 710 to avoid the rest of the 605 and an additional cluster**** on the 5, add another 25 minutes extra. Get to the 101, 2 exits in and CHP shuts down all northbound lanes literally right in front of us.
Nearly two and a half hours later, we finally made it to the offsite parking at an average of 16mph.
