Oh noes... Resisting the urge to ask "what happened" since I know you don't know.

Is the problem with the 8 or someone elses?

you guys are approaching the 91 so that's probably why there's delays.

the 60, 215, and 91 are all right there so it's usually a cluster f*ck.
I just checked google maps based on your location (near exit 66) and traffic looks really good as soon as you guys get closer to the 91

MM leading 15 cars out of a cash toll before an empty 5 mile 5% grade downhill...

I was the 3rd to last through, 1 other caravan car in sight, and it was passing triple digits trying to catch the only car HE saw...

Get to the bottom VERY quickly to find everyone regatheting, just in time for Jedi to text me "i see where you are, watch your speed through there"
