Dear Scott: Your recent story about the Stafford corridor of Interstate 95 being the worst totally affirms what I have thought the past few years.

My husband and I commuted up the road from 1977 to 2012, when we retired. My commute to Dale City of 21 miles one way took about half an hour originally. In 2012, I was spending one hour to get home.

We have continued to go up north to appointments and to see family. The traffic continues to bog down. The E-ZPass has helped some but is expensive.
