Obsession with twngan

The biggest reason for me being so tired after arriving to L.A. is the traffic. Moving from one place to another looks easy on maps; in fact, if you check with Google Maps or Mapquest, they'd tell you that you can arrive pretty much all places within half an hour or so via highway. Not even close. While L.A. has one of the most complicated highway system, it always has traffic jams and you can barely move. Plus the trucks are much more aggressive than in other places, so you need to be more careful.

Speaking of traffic, I should also talk about my GPS. While it generally still works really well, there are three problems I wish were fixed.

1. It is sometimes annoying. When there are changes in the route (construction or road moved), it keeps saying "recalculating" and nagging you until it gets its way.
2. It is too talkative. In all highway intersections, it tells you which way to go. This becomes a problem when you are in places like L.A., where there are plenty of highway intersections. So every two minute, you would hear something like "In .2 mile, keep left on I-10, then keep left."
3. It doesn't give priority to large roads. Sometimes it directs you to small neighborhood and asks you to go through a dead-end.

Despite these, it is still a great product, and I couldn't image how my last few days would be without it.
