Interesting read.  I was a bit surprised to see that the commute on 101 wasn't extended further north.  I'm not a Bay Area resident, but I'd imagine that 101 southbound can be pretty bad leaving downtown heading towards SFO and eventually San Jose.

Thanks for posting this.

I'm surprised 101 between the SF/San Mateo county line and the 101/80 split wasn't mentioned.  It's always been particularly bad during the PM rush hour.
