Even in the 1980s, guide books like "The Best Places to Go" urged people to drive along routes like Taichung to Nan-tou to Changhua to Yunlin, covering a large area in a single trip. But today these journeys are being avoided by seasoned travellers because of traffic jams.
即使是八○年代《×× 最佳去處》等旅遊書所鼓勵推薦的，如開車從「台中、南投、彰化，一路遊到雲林」等大區域玩法的建議，現也因旅遊者眾或塞車等因素，被旅遊行家排斥。
