Comment on Stay under the speed limit, guys. It's not worth it.
plantfanatic@sh.itjust.works 3 hours agoOther way around dude, roads are Congested from people already ignoring the highway since it’s going to be bad. Pick your poison.
And there is okay public transport, some people just prefer the “freedom” of driving. Even the best public transport isn’t going to make it across town in the same amount of time as a non-lighted highway. Too many stops.
You seem to have such a narrow view and understanding of the complexities of transportation and just want to bloviate about being anti car.
I’m leaving this conversation now, there’s no good that will come from trying to educate you, since you wouldn’t want to be, to set in your ignorance.

If it makes you feel better to believe that, go ahead. For my part, I think it’s a pretty obvious truth that when the government makes an open-access highway for everybody to use, everybody is going to use it, even in ways you may not like. Especially when it makes driving the fastest and most convenient way to get around. (Making driving on the highway faster than public transit requires lots of infrastructure, and was a deliberate policy choice.)
