Anybody else get caught in this on the way to work this morning?
I normally don't take Deerfoot, but had to drop my car off at T and T Honda for some servicing.
Took me almost 2 hours to get to work. It was backed up everywhere.

I wasn't affected by it but my co-worker was. He said it was backed up all the way from Bowtrail and 37th St. SW.
Yeah, people spill into other roads which took me extra 10min to get to downtown.

I wasn't on Deerfoot, but a lot of the traffic was detoured to Centre St. and that added about 15 minutes of driving to my commute downtown.
Barlow was backed up too. It only took me an extra 10 minutes or so though.
Success is the ultimate revenge.
yeah, i saw it as i was getting onto deerfoot from 32nd, and it looked bad. Glad I had the vibe on to tell me not to take the mcknight to deerfoot ramp.
i was early enough to beat most people, but traffic was already backed up to beddington tr. at quarter to 7. people were driving on the shoulder to beat the traffic this morning.
aparently they turned from 32nd st onto deerfoot southbound, travelling north.
what in the fuck.
drive safe folks.
I heard this on the news this morning. I'm so glad I don't have to drive in rush hour traffic. Deerfoot can be crazy.
I got stuck in it, took 45 minutes to get from 64th to McNight at around 7am
^ dude i got out of the door 1/2 hr earlier was was stuck on center from 64th to Mcknight for about an extra 10mins

Must be a suicide attempt.
Reports said alcohol was not a factor, so that makes you wonder... He sideswiped 3 cars before hitting head on into another one..... Buddy shouldn't endanger others lives because his own sucks.... He should have explored other methods.Originally posted by Xtrema
