what's the story where leyla gulen?kristen, right at the bay bridge if not on the bay bridge. that's all because folks have had to travel three hours, two hours, just to go a very short distance, which overheated their cars. so you can imagine it is a bit of a headache out there. let's look at how things are moving along. heading out of tracy into dub n dublin, still a slow drive. 580 coming from tracy to dublin, 39 minutes. looks like things have calmed down a little bit. your 4 westbound out of antioch to the maze, 45 minutes, 40 minutes along 80 away from highway 4 into san francisco. it is starting to ease up a little bit but a headache nonetheless. now let's take a look with kristen. >> thank you, leyla. a live look at the bay bridge toll plaza where frustration is still there intensifying for those cash-paying drivers. they are hardly moving. those are the people who have the longest wait. one driver told us it took her three hours to get to the toll plaza from pittsburgh. all of that waiting means more cars than
