How expensive do you think a day pass is? I honestly can not see how the people thinking it beach access is unattainable are arguing in anything other than bad faith, my family still went to Sea Girt multiple times a week when we were on food stamps.

Depends, my problem with Waze and to a lesser extent google was that it would regularly pick routes that would waste a lot of gas trying to sneak out a route, while also not factoring in traffic lights. Stopping and getting up to surface highway speed over a long drive guzzles gas quick. When prices spiked earlier I decided to do some testing with my once a week commute to Piscataway from Pt.Pleasant. And once all was said and done comparing the Parkway and 18 I was actually spending around $3 more on 18 because of the brick wall that is New and East Brunswick.

Yeah, been taking about 15 minutes longer getting back from job sites over the last 2 days. Rare I get a solid frame of refrence but schedule is shaking out that way.

None of this is of course helped by the fact the NJDOT seems to have strategically co ordinated its road work to maximize bottlenecks. Like the clusterfuck that is now NJ36 to/from the GSP in Eatontown.
