Driving and Speed Limits in Houston
Unlike in the rest of US (and the World), the traffic lights in Houston (and whole Texas) are aligned horizontaly, not vertically. Traffic congestions during the rush hour can get nasty in Houston, but car is practically the only option of getting along here. Parking space is ample in the larger Houston but parking in Downtown can be tricky.
