No, it's not that bad, it just looks it. I've never had any trouble driving in LA, and I'm from Australia where we drive on the 'wrong' side of the road. But then I can drive and read signs at the same time. :)
It's really not that bad lol... pretty clear, just horrible traffic cuz people don't know how to read signs, let alone drive at the same time haha. I can't even figure out what interchange this is and I'm born and raised here!
