   The traffic was crawling.

Hear the storyline. James is on his way to his friend's house, but unfortunately there's an accident on the freeway and the traffic is moving verly slowly....
Roselind: Oh, my goodness, the traffic is crawling.
James: I think there's an accident ahead.
Roselind: We're now running late.
James: I know.  Why don't we take a different route?
Roselind: Let me take a look at the map.  Yes, there's an exit three quarters of a mile ahead.  We'll exit Market Street, head west, and then get on the Pennsylvania Freeway.
James: OK, let's do that even though we may have to take a longer way.
