There are parts of this thing that I love and there are other parts that gets the majority of my swear words. The stretch right around 610/Galleria area is one of the worst clusterF(*& in all of Houston. And for some reason that area always has a flipped over 18-wheeler that just shuts down all of Houston traffic. However, coming from 288 north towards 610 N, I usually opt to take 59 N instead of 45 N just because that stretch where 45 splits is just awful. At the end of the day it is a highway, and if you drive it enough you learn the tricks and live with it.

You’ll always be in my heart… I can honestly say that I’ve on this freeway thousands of times.
