A Quiet City by Bwana_Brown
After picking up our rental car at DFW Airport, we headed away from Dallas for a couple of days in Oklahoma before my meetings started. The traffic was quite steady and heavy on the 635 Ring Road (noon on Saturday) until we branched off and headed north on Rt. 75 for Oklahoma. On our return, we were coming in from the east on Interstate-30 on a Monday morning and I was worried about the traffic in getting to our downtown hotel. However, we drove straight in to Dallas-Love airport for the drop-off with no traffic problems at all. Once we took a taxi to the downtown area, things became even quieter. There seemed to be very little traffic on the streets for a city of this size! I was surprised all week long at how easy it would have been to get around by car (if I had one) - not even close to driving in Boston or New York!
