We tried driving thruogh Cranston at Christmas to get to a relative's house. It was a complete disaster - how the hell do you get around neighborhoods like that? Why do they design them like windy mazes from spaghetti-like infrastructure planning? I'm pretty sure the developer is messing with people's minds and calling it 'smart' - I think they were all on mushrooms.

An efficient grid system, those neighborhoods are definitely not. I'll never attempt to venture into those neighbourhoods again, unless I feel like bringing a compass and engaging in hilarious drunk urban orienteering.
