Yes these are real phenomenons that exist, but focusing on this marginal issue is fiddling at the edges of the real core problem. Roads are fixed in size, cars are very big and take up too much space. Fundamentally baked into the design this is an inefficient way to move people around and there's no fix to be found working within a car oriented framework. The only solution is in removing cars from the road. This is why self driving cannot fix traffic as it will only add more cars. Self driving buses, now that would be an improvement, but self driving cars no.
