I spent 40 minutes on the worst traffic level in a Game Boy game while waiting for my oil change
Everyone says the racing levels in that old Game Boy game are the hard part, but the traffic stage is way worse and I will die on that hill. I was sitting in the lobby at the Jiffy Lube on Buckley Road and figured I could beat it before they called my name, and 40 minutes later I was still stuck on the same stretch of highway dodging the same blue car. The hitbox on that thing is garbage and no one online mentions it because they all quit at the ice level instead. If you beat that stage as a kid you either got lucky or you are lying, and I want to hear which one it is.

That blue car on Buckley Road has the same problem as the blue car in the game, the hitbox on both is way bigger than the sprite looks. Here is the thing nobody brings up though: the traffic stage runs at a slower frame rate than the racing levels, so your inputs get eaten on top of the bad hitbox. That combo is why it took you 40 minutes at Jiffy Lube, and why everyone blames the ice level instead.
