Traffic jams

For many years, Raze has been driving to work and back every weekday. Every morning, on his way to work, especially during the rush hour, the highways are usually crowded causing massive traffic jams. The situation is even worse in the evening when he drives home. All the traffic comes to halt whenever there is an accident or a car has broken down and blocks an entire lane. In the winter, particularly when it snows, multi-car accidents with injuries can take emergency paramedics and vehicles removers a number of hours to clear the road. When Raza is stuck in a heavy traffic jam, he listens to music on the radio to calm his nerves. His boos and his wife know that if he is late, he is probably stuck a traffic.
