There are so many images of gridlocked roads full of cars I hope all the replies are no repeated ones

That looks like a nightmare. Like that photo from America with all the gas stations, McDonald's and stuff.

Horrible American Urban Hell.

That's half the towns I drive through, usually right off a highway.

It's gross.

The problem is that the highway is only 4-lane wide in each direction. If it were 400-lane wide there wouldn't be any congestion.

/s shouldn't be necessary but it is the Internet

I am always reminded of this picture when people are "just one more lane". Cause that has always fixed the congestion issues

And if we scrapped all existing aircraft nobody would have a late flight ever again!

Look at all those mostly/stopped cars I can breeze by on my bike...

I can smell this picture.
