my commute sucks

A new site has launched that encourages users to bitch and moan about their daily commute to Congress and the general public.

MyCommuteSucks.org, which launched last Friday on National Bike to Work Day, was created to help commuters redirect their rage to improve America’s transportation. It’s a project of Transportation for America, a broad coalition of housing, environmental, equity, public health, urban planning, transportation and other organizations focused on creating a 21st Century national transportation program.

The site gives users a forum to complain about road rage, potholes, rocketing gas prices, crowded, unsafe streets, and noxious fumes. The site’s founders hope the rants will affect the upcoming Transportation Bill, set to be debated in Congress in the coming weeks, which will spend billions of dollars in federal transportation funds over the next 6 years.

Twitter users can tweet their bad commute experiences with the hashtag #mycommutesucks and it’ll feed automatically to the website. Follow the campaign on Twitter at http://twitter.com/mycommutesucks.
