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. :)

numbers 1 and 2 work fine but number 3 doesn't work. "the" direction isn't specific here. It would be best to simply use a demonstrative (this that) or a possessive (my their)

Hey Prudent260
You can use the second one: How come there is a serious traffic jam in this direction, but not the other?
Alternatively you can use these verbs to describe the traffic jam :
a terrible..
an awful..
Hope this helps!
