Traffic Jam

Traffic was bad, really bad today. I usually take 40-50 minutes to reach home from PJ to Kajang, but today it took me 2 hours.

The cause, flash flood at Connaught highway (from PJ) in front of the Chinese cemetery. The jam started rigth after the toll plaza (5o cents). Once the car passed the flash flood highway, the traffic was back to its normal peak hour traffic.

From the radio reports, there were no flash floods in KL, but the surrounding areas and highways around town. Looks like the Smart tunnel is doing its part to alleviate floods in KL.
