I never will understand this why freeways get bottle necked every day.the speed limit is 60 explain it to me?

Answer 1

too many people all trying to go the same way..... you know .... sometimes you make better time with a side street..

its always been ... people wanting on people wanting off people in the wrong lane... people who dont need to be driving at all... people who is just driving thru and afraid.... real reason just too many cars for the road to handle at one time.... id find another road or street sometimes its faster really when you know its going to happen... and where

Answer 2

Yeah, too many people goign the ssame way.  Then you have all the freaking non-drivers, and inconsiderate drives, slow drivers adn just too much traffic period.

Answer 3

because of the on ramps.. you have a full four lane  hiwy and then pass a on ramp with five hundred cars forcing there way into the traffic.. this is the case every two miles.. and it bogs down the traffic every two miles another ramp finally you could walk faster thjan the traffic.. is moving.. the road was designed for high speed and quick connection when there were a small population in the area now there are twenty times the people.. ok

Answer 4

because there are a lot of idiots out there talking on cell phones and riding along in the passing lane and are blind to the world as they speed up and slow down as they talk away.
