Ya know, I saw an interview with the president of the California Auto Club. He said they did an analysis (or something) of California freeways and the congestion problem.
He stated that actually we have more than enough roads, lanes, freeways, etc. to accommodate every commuter in the Southland. What causes all the bumper to bumper traffic are the traffic accidents and the bad drivers.
Wow! That was food for thought -- the jerk racing around other cars because he thinks he can shave a few minutes off his commute time is actually the person causing the slowdowns.
He made a really heartfelt plea for everyone to obey the traffic speed limits and just be courteous drivers.....
