It isn't just the chicken, it is the very presence of a roadside attraction that slows the traffic flow, because it is an already messed up bottleneck the vending makes it worse. I go through there 10 times a week minimum, and if there is a roadside vendor the traffic backs up farther and the merge gets even slower. I can tell when there will be someone set up there, before I even see them, by the way the traffic flows. From a vendor's perspective it is a perfect place BECAUSE people are slowed down and there is room for cars to pull over, but from a commuter perspective they just make a bad situation worse. It is just human nature to slow down even more and look at whatever is going on along the side of the road, but that spot is right where the congestion should start to ease instead of slowing down even more. Plus, I've had drivers in front of me suddenly slam on their brakes when they finally decide to pull over, which is kind of hazardous. It doesn't ruin my day when vendors are set up there, I just wish they could find a better spot that doesn't add to the congestion.

I was kind of surprised that Tom set up that cooker right under the power lines though, that baby must crank some serious BTUs and I personally wouldn't want to set it up under power lines.
