Lexington, KY Consejos de Manejo
Like I said before, use New Circle Road when you are first starting out in this city driving around. It may take you a little bit longer to get somewhere, but it is much easier to get to where you are going and then to get home from that location. Also, a piece of advice to someone first starting to

drive in this city would be to take a Sunday afternoon, get on New Circle road, and then just explore. Take an exit off the road and venture out and see what streets and roads connect to where. Once you become a more seasoned driver in this city, you may rarely use New Circle, but it will definitely help you find short cuts and find quicker and easier ways to get from one location to another. Just getting out and driving around will help you find roads that connect and will get you from one place to another quicker and also to help avoid those busy streets and roads that will cut your commuter time in half. Explore, explore, explore. Also, another thing that will help you out is just to ask local places the quickest way to get somewhere. People that have been born and raised there will know a basically unknown route and it will help SO much.

I have never bought a car in this city before, so I am not quite that knowledgeable what is the "best" option for buying a car. I know there are TONS of dealerships on Nicholasville Road because I pass by them everyday. They have all kinds of dealerships, from used cars that look like junk all the w

ay to a Jaguar and Range Rover dealerships that carry VERY expensive cars. There is a wide, wide assortment of cars you can choose from in a very small span of space. I would probably recommend checking out online cars that are for sell because there are very small towns and communities around Lexington and looking online could compile your search into what exactly you are looking for without having to waste a lot of gas traveling the small towns to check the cars out!

One of my favorite memories of driving in this city would be when I had first moved there. I had been to the city many, many times before, but I had always usually gone to just a couple destinations in the city. They were also very well known destinations (the mall, the football field, the campus) s

o the route was simple and well known. Once I moved there, though, I was needing help finding the closest gas station, the closest McDonalds, etc. The things that seem so simple in a smaller town were now things I was basically clueless on. So one Saturday afternoon, I was with one of my best friends and we decided to venture out and just to see what was close to my apartment and what roads could connect me to more mainstream roads. Well without much explanation and in quite a short amount of time, we were lost. We had gotten on one of the back streets of the city and gotten ourselves into a residential area. I hadn't been paying attention to what roads we had turned off of, how many left/right turns we had taken. Long story short, we FINALLY found our way back to my apartment and after taking a look at a map online as to where exactly we had been, come to find out we were less than a 1/2 mile from my home!! We had just taken a left when we needed to take a right. If we had taken that right, we would have been home in 5 minutes. It made us laugh and laugh and gave us quite an adventure that day, but it also made me MUCH more knowledgeable about the roads in and around my apartment complex. I had such a fun time that day even though we were lost!

New circle road

This road is my favorite road to ride around in this city because it allows you to get anywhere you need to go in the city. If you stay on this road, because it is a circle, you can get anywhere and everywhere you need to go. It may take a little longer than different routes, but you will eventually

get there. It was my go-to road when I first lived there because I wasn't very well-versed in the shortcuts and exactly where particular places were in and around the city. It is a high traffic road, but the speed limit and the ease of driving on this road makes it a good route to travel when in doubt of a particular destination's location. Very rarely does this road have construction on it and during rush hour it is packed full of cars, trucks, etc., But like I said, it gets you where you need to go. I have positive feelings about this road because it helped me out so much when I first lived there. It is also a well known road in Lexington, so when you say "New Circle Road', everyone knows where you are talking about and you can use this road as a reference when giving directions because everyone knows exactly where you are starting from and where you should go from being on that road. Lexington developers were very smart with creating this road to make access to downtown and the outlying destinations easier and gives commuters a "place to start from".

Shop around, there are plenty of places to get a good deal around here. If you would like my best bet? I would say to venture just outside of Lexington to places such as Georgetown, Nicholasville, and possibly Ashland if you are willing to make the drive. Lexington is a fairly affordable city, so lo

Not much, the best time to drive in this city is at night after things are settled down during the week. My favorite memories are late at night when the roads are clear and you are just cruising around town checking out the bar scene, Walmart, and other locations that are open late at night.

g during the day in Lexington is pretty much a nightmare for several reasons. The Public transportation which is run by Lextran is basically a non-option for people who have a busy schedule as it takes anywhere between 1 hour to 90 minutes to get around town. The city itself is laid out in a circle which is not the easiest way to get from point A to point B across town. In addition to that, the roads were just not built for the population that is now in Lexington,

Lexington is a very visually appealing place to live in, many farms on the outskirts and of course the keen eland racing track. The reason I like Keeneland is because it reminds me of how nice and clean this town is considering the population continues to expand.

Visit all of the main roads in the city and go through their connections with other roads. There is so much that you are able to see in Lexington just by going through the main roads. Most of them have more than 3 lanes, therefore the traffic is spread out.

One day I was driving on an extremely long street named Nicholasville Road which has an amazing view of the suburbs. I was in the deep traffic and there were many cars all around me.

ity into Lexington and this road was one of the options that I could take, so therefore I took it, and wasn't disappointed. Coming into the city from it, there were many extremely beautiful sights as I missed the rain by a couple of minutes. Everything was wet, yet there was a little sunshine peeking through the clouds and shining on the road. It was such a beautiful thing.

It is a very long road, where you can stay in one lane the whole time on it. It has very peaceful traffic throughout the day and it is always clear of snow and ice in the winter.
