In most population dense parts of the country where traffic is a problem, there is no “side of the road” to dig a ditch into. It’s all built up.

There's also, much more data being constantly captured. For example, Google Maps can already hyper-accurately predict traffic down to individual road sections simply by observing the position and speed of Android phones on the road.
