That sounds like my old commute home in Atlanta. Took me over an hour on a GOOD day to go 20 miles from Marietta to Brookhaven, and about 45 minutes of that was a 2 mile stretch (between 285 and the Ashford Dunwoody and Johnson Ferry intersection, for any Atlanta people reading this). The last mile or so would open up, and if I was first in line, I'd easily hit 80 on this little 2 lane windy road.
