I do this on a daily basis, usually because of construction that's got a street ripped up. It's just not that big a deal in terms of distance, although I will confess I'm more than a bit pissed off at the current state of Comm Ave in Boston. There's no real warning until you're in it; at that point there's really no bailout (because of one-ways, the river and the river roads), and that stuff will trash tires and wheels.
