There is always a traffic jam on my way to work, but the traffic is usually smooth on the other side of the road. May I ask my passenger the questions below when I'm in the car? 1. How come there is a serious traffic jam in MY direction, but not the other? 2. How come there is a serious traffic jam in THIS direction, but not the other? 3. How come there is a serious traffic jam in THE direction, but not the other? With appreciation, Prudent. :)
