Traffic being the first word I found fucked me up because I thought it was commute related.

They're things you'd hear on the car radio on the way to work. The phrase "morning drivetime" might be an American thing?

The first two words I found were "traffic" and "weather" which threw me off on a tangent looking for driving hazards for a while.

Drivetime is not a real word. The title is also bullshit. These are just things on the radio they have nothing to do with going to work.

Drive time is the morning commute to work where people listen to the radio. Have you never heard that term before?

Here in the UK Drivetime is usually associated with the radio shows around 5ish on the way home from work, so it did throw me a bit, not gonna lie

I made the spangram harder to find than it should have been because I was using some of the letters for the word "Step" , which fit the theme but wasn't on the list

I didn't know the spangram could touch 3 sides .

Yeah I think that's new. I guess it does still touch 2 sides, but it doesn't originate from either of those sides....

The spangram describes the puzzles theme and touches two opposite sides of the board. It may be two words.

Ah... so it doesn't necessarily have to begin and end on those opposite sides. Neat little thing to keep in their back pocket.

The spangram was on the tip of my tongue by the second guess, but I couldn't think of it for the life of me.

I spent several minutes confused that they broke their own rules, but I guess the rules technically only state that it has to touch opposite sides, not start and end there. Still feels kind of like a cheap trick, though.
