I’m thinking Oklahoma on this map is influenced by Tinker. When all those gubermint workers get off they’re ready to get home.
It is also when schools let out and the kids are driving home via the Sonic, bowling alley, Stop-N-Rob, the local lake in town and the liquor store for the parents.

I live on a rural highway that as a kid was typically abandoned at night. Now it’s busy all hours of the day.
I think probably a good part of the problem today is there’s so many more people crowding the roads.
Yep. I don't think there is a time, day or night, that this area isn't covered up with drivers but morning and evening rush hours are brutal. And when school is in it gets even worse. The 3pm thing is real over here -- I've got a high school in front of me, a middle school to my right and a couple of grade schools behind me. It's NUTS ...

The worst time to drive for me (81yrs) is when I need to go to the store.

You just have to wonder where all those people are going between 3:00-3:59. I always ask myself, shouldn't these people be at work?
A lot of folks work the 7am to 3pm shift. I used to. Usually at 2:59pm there was a stampede of ********* rushing out the door and at 3:00pm there was a lot of tire squealing departing the parking lot.

Not all, but a lot of businesses that run 24 hours have 3 shifts arranged, 7am to 3pm, 3pm to 11pm, and 11pm to 7am. Then there may be a rotating shift or rotating shift workers who work by rotating though to cover those on vacation, sick, jury duty, etc etc etc.
