It doesn't matter how much money you spend on building roads, traffic only gets relieved for a little while before it is followed by new development to clog everything back up again. And once that development spins up your options for expanding anything further dry up quickly. It's a cycle that perpetuates itself while also compounding the problem with each iteration. It's the culmination of poor urban planning, poor public transportation and a culture of selfishness. Cars are a relic of the 1920s-- they do not fucking work at scale but nobody is willing to admit it.
