Houston is so far widespread its borderline crazy and the fact that only 40% of it is serviced by buses - those too with routes so hopeless that it would be a nightmare for commuting to work (not everyone works in downtown)

speaking of crazy driving - I drive everyday from Richmond to Woodlands - leave at 6:00 AM and get there at 6:55 on entry gate check in for work.

If I take that same route at 7:00 AM I would get there by 9:30 AM - all thanks to a stupid road network that is getting plugged up by the influx of people from all over the USA.

I have had my timings modified that I can get to work at 7:00 and leave at 4:00 to beat the nutso traffic - which is a collection of "stupid, testing, dozing off, fighting" drivers.

This city seriously needs a proper heavy transport system to land into somewhere near downtown and then small route buses to take you to your destination. (used to do that in London when I lived there)
