Metro Manila, Philippines. 8-10 mile drive would take at least an hour to an hour and a half.

I'll give you that its impossible to navigate if you're new to town, but traffic itself isn't all that bad (comparatively).

Its somewhat of a Catch 22. You are guaranteed to get lost if you've never driven it before, but if you're planning on living hear for any period of time with a car, you'll have to do it eventually.

Yeah since LA county is so big their traffic is probably the worst, but it tends to be pure volume, vehicle breakdowns and accidents that cause delays. The D.C. Metro area is way smaller, however it's subject to all kinds of crap including regular stuff, inclimate weather, and plain poor driving. I was personally stuck in more traffic jams that last 3+ hours than I care to count. I've known people that have gotten stuck for 6+ hours just as many times. Also, it seems that every year the D.C. metro area has at least one 8+ hour traffic jam and a major pile up of some sort every other year.





LA county is not that big. Granted, it is larger that the Metro DC area; however the condensed area of LA county where the traffic is (city of Los Angeles, and immediate areas), I do not think to be any larger than the Metro DC area. Also keep in mind, our traffic jams can stretch from Los Angeles to San Diego.




If I'm not mistaken, I believe LA is the largest county in the nation.




i dont think so, possibly population wise but not in physical size. San Bernadino county is about 6x the size of LA county and Kern county (bakersfield) is about 4x its size.
CA counties




That's what I meant was population wise. Lotsa people, smallish area = baaaad traffic.
