Canal street gridlock, that sums it up alright. Such a pain in the ass, there's traffic all over the place, if you want to get anywhere, you gotta walk in the streets.

You could barely walk on Canal Street. However, if the NYPD continues to crack down on the sale of "fake" merchandise it might slowly start to cool down.

yeah...on Canal (and Broadway in SoHo) you actually have to walk in the street alongside the curb sometimes because the sidewalks are so crowded and chaotic!
