This is possible because instead of crawling along city streets with a traffic light at every corner, many commuters speed most of the way along expressways. The data suggests that most commuters are willing to spend 20-30 minutes to get to work. When congestion does become intolerable for some people, they usually find other routes, other means of transportation, other places to live or work, or other times to travel. Those left on the highways, in other words, are there by choice, for the most part. They are not victims of evil growth, as special interests insist.
