Apparently it only takes 9hrs to drive around Moscow. US guys, your time to shine! I bet you'd have a city that would take more time to drive around than Netherlands
Nope, even New York is smaller.
Russia 1 : US 0
Now try it with New York traffic.
I must assure you Moscow traffic ain't a joke either :D Been there
Not sure how you'd drive around NY (on a boat?), but I was pretty sure that DFW is at least just as big - must be, given how it's population is only 2x smaller, but consists mostly of suburbs that consume vastly more space per person compared to Moscow's commieblocks. There's no neat circle roads there, though, but taking even the most encompassing route (which is fair game given how Moscow's ring road also wraps around a lot of area not under Moscow jurisdiction) it still takes less time, even though the distance is higher.
Fair enough!
