> I honestly don’t get why anyone would subjugate them self to this kind of traffic as part of their daily commute. You may have trouble understanding it, but empirically a huge number of people see this extremely regularly, if not daily. It's not even necessarily a feature of horrifically long commutes. For one example, lots of places that have basically ok traffic have bottlenecks at bridges, you may be stop and go for a little while every day getting across that.
