My last drive from Washington to Mississippi was almost non-stop (3 drivers). Still took almost 3 days.
I’ve driven across the country about 5 times now. You ain’t safely doing that in 3 days.
Now imagine doing it in less than 26hrs…
i drove from boston to portland in three days, i was driving between 12 and 16 hours a day, was it safe? hmmmmm, no comment…
Europeans often don’t understand the scale of the US. The EU is a better comparison than any single European country. The Ukrainian front lines are as close to Paris as Los Angeles is to New York. You have to drive for hours to get across most states, even on the east coast. You can read 784 miles till your destination on GPS, and not even be traveling out of state.
In Australia, you can be driving for 3 days and still be in the same state
Australia has a similar geographic scale, but not in terms of population. It’s similar to Canada in that respect, with most of it being nearly uninhabitable by humans. The US is far more hospitable by comparison.
and theres like nothing between most cities as well, vast stretches of empty land, where as in the eu cities are much closer and much more dense. in lots of parts of the usa interstate system you can travel for a hundred miles before you reach any civilization at all. and its probably just some gas station town thats only really there to be a rest stop/tourist trap.
I heard Trans people can teleport, so why not teleport?
This is a common misconception, Trans people can’t teleport…
…but some of us can double jump.
What no high speed rail does to a mfer
That’s still almost 10hrs train ride one way. Assuming an express train from NYC to Portland.
That’s a perfectly reasonable time for that distance.
While I wish Amtrak was more prevalent in the US, being able to take a train across the country is great!
Here’s the rail map if you ever consider using it:
I don’t live in America, so this doesn’t apply to me, but hopefully someone else can get something out of this. (Live in Europe, Germany)
Assuming they get on the train in Portland, OR and travel to Albany, NY, it’ll take them 77 hours in slightly-more-legroom than normal seats.
Would legit be cheaper to fly.
And SO much faster hahaha
imagineee still being in same countryyyy awaaaaaa im so far awayyyyy bleh xwx
It’s what we do for cute cat boys/girls
mmm very true. we like the treasure at end of veryvery long rainbow XP
bitch watch me cross countries
meow?
pats head
Google says my house in Portland to Philly is 1 day, 18 hours. But I’m pretty sure that’s not counting rest stops.
yeah google assumes you dont stop at all, so 42 straight hours, but im farther east than that lol
My wife and I were NYC to Seattle for three years in high school. It sucked so bad but we made it. Now I get to see her every day and the distance is just a dusty memory. We believe in you ❤️
This is me but I’m doing it.
realest thing ever
i would not know :P
