Alert | | Like I've said before, 6 lanes on 347 buys us nothing. We need another route out of Maricopa. I'm stressed out arriving to work an hour late. Sheesh! Pay attention on the road folks! | | | |

Alert | Accident must have just happened when we drove by, as we there were no police, ambulance or fire truck. One car was in the median, one car was pulled to the right and one car was in the left lane facing traffic. I'm not an expert, but it appears one of the cars may have gone through the median, as there was debris on the southbound side as well.
The car in the left lane facing traffic had the most damage. Totally smashed in the front. The driver was still in the car, her hands on her face, with an absolutely stunned look on her face. All other drivers/passengers were out of their cars. | |

This is all I could SEE in my Mirror.... and all I coulde see in front of me. I left at 7:00 am and got to work at 8:45 am. | |
Just doing it one day at a time. Change is good and it should be looked upon as an improvment! not a problem.

Alert | Gotta love Val Vista! I saw the traffic backed to Honeycutt so I turned around and was 15 minutes late.
I changed my hours later (9:30 to 6:00) and most of the time it only takes 45 to 50 minutes to get to work, and I have been getting much better gas mileage. If I am running late, I can take the diamond lane. My stress level has gone way down.
I hope everyone was okay. | |

Alert | Most of the time the accidents have been early in the day. If you leave late, then you can get on here before you go and find out if there is an accident. Anyway, today I forgot, but when I saw the traffic, I just called my husband to get on 85239. He read me what MaricopaMother said and I turned around and took Val Vista.
I also have friends who leave early who call and tell me if they have any problems. By the time I leave after 8:30, things are usually cleaned up. | |
