The fact that we can't physically nor practically build ourselves out of congestion (and that demand is always induced to become the higher the more roadspace we build) doesn't change the fact that it's exactly the rush hour traffic that warrants the construction of new roads, bypasses, ramps, and is used to validate road widening. No city would be building more capacity without the pain that is the rush hour traffic.
