In a tweet today, Maryellen Livingston Garasky (pictured) comments that she hit every red light on Highway 95 as she started her morning commute. And she wondered whether that the close encounter with red lights was a sign that it was going to be "one of those days ..." I try to avoid Highway 95, b/n Appleway and Hayden Avenue as much as possible, opting for Government Way or even 4th Street to get from Coeur d'Alene to Hayden and other points north. I'm like Maryellen when I'm on 95 or Government Way, however -- counting the lights and fighting low-level road rage when I hit too many of them. How about you?
Question: How do you cope with all the red lights on Highway 95?
