How is the traffic in Seattle?

I’m moving from a small town to Seattle and I’m worried about the traffic on my commute. How bad is the traffic in Seattle?

Good luck on your move! Unfortunately, the traffic in
Seattle
is quite bad and commuters must always be prepared to move very slowly on major roads and highways.
In 2020, three of the worst chokeholds in Seattle were:
East Marginal Way S at Alaska St. Montlake Bridge and East Marginal Way S Mercer St. at Fairview Ave. N
One of the reasons behind Seattle’s traffic issues is its lack of a proper public transportation system. It’s also a tough city to navigate, with streets often switching between one-way and two-way without any signage to warn drivers.
If you commute daily, it’s important to have the right
car insurance
