<p>ok well i know most of my freinds are having trouble with finding a parking spot at their community colleges so i was wondering how much trouble im gonna have at ucla. i was assigned parking, yaay for me, but am i guaranteed a spot to park in? so my question is lets say my class starts at 10 and i live about 45 minutes from ucla, how soon should i leave the house so i can get a spot? are the parking lots jammed and hard to get through? it would mean alot if u guys gave me some feedback on this! thanks!</p>

<p>which structure is your permit for?</p>

<p>What time of day is your class? If you live 45 minutes from campus, then I'm sure you know what traffic can be like during rush hour!</p>

<p>im in structure 3 and my days start at 10, my first class is at 10 am...</p>

<p>"If you live 45 minutes from campus, then I'm sure you know what traffic can be like during rush hour!"</p>

<p>uhh lol i know i may sound blonde, but what the heck....when exactly is rush hour?</p>

<p>I'd say in the morning from 5 (yeah I know it sounds early, but traffic does start to pick up around this time!) until about 9. Then afternoon is 4 until around 7.</p>

<p>why do they call it rush hour? if its the hours where everyone is rushing to work/school/wherever, then shouldnt traffic be flowing extra fast? :D</p>

8

<p>Yes in theory that is the idea, however by everybody going extra fast, we all end up going very slow!</p>

<p>Traffic honestly makes no sense to me. Seriously, just freaking drive. </p>

<p>But I'm a really, really agressive driver. </p>

<p>Obviously.</p>

<p>*disclaimer: the "just freaking drive" wasn't directed towards anyone here, but rather to those who find it necessary to sit on the brakes in the middle of a moving freeway or who like to stop a football field behind the car in front of them. </p>

<p>My friends decided they wanted to go to Target today. In WEST HOLLYWOOD. At 5 pm. And I'm the only one with a car, and yeah. </p>

<p>long. night.</p>

<p>Just take comfort in the fact that however bad an experience you have driving in LA, somewhere there is an American far more angry and confused driving in Japan.</p>

<p>Believe me.</p>
