I know this is going to sound heartless, but... gentleman, please keep your lady-friends in the vehicle with you while it is in motion. I really don't feel like missing a quarter of my work day because your girl can't hold her liquor.

Are you talking about the woman that jumped out of a limo on the 405 in Costa Mesa and was killed?

I was a half hour late to work this morning cuz traffic was so bad - and I don't even go on the 405 South. Apparently lots of people cut over to the 5 (I take the 5 from Disneyland down to San Clemente) to detour the accident.

It's really sad someone got killed on the freeway though, but jumping out on the freeway isn't a good idea. Being pushed out though, that would be news.

I'm tired of the traffic here in Cali, even on weekends gridlock. I thought the gas tax was suppose to improve and expand roads here.

Haha most of my coworkers were late today because of that accident. It happened right at our exit off the 405 here in Costa Mesa. LOL. The funny thing is I live the farthest from everyone and I got to work before they did.

I don't take the 405 either, but I was one of the many stuck on the 5 forever. It took me 2 hours for a drive that even in thick traffic usually takes about 45 minutes.

The news keeps reporting it's a suicide, but if you're really gonna kill yourself isn't there maybe a less gruesome or painful way to do it? I'm beginning to think there's more to this story.

That is sad.
I couldn't begin to imagine how the other motorists would feel by being involved in this.
