In California, depending on traffic, it can take 2 hours to move 20 feet. Anyone out East ever just feel like you’d reach your destination faster by just getting out and walking?
Once while driving through LAX, the traffic was bad enough that we were traveling side by side with a broken down car that two dudes were pushing. They even had plenty of opportunities to rest.
New Jersey just had one of its MAJOR bridges shut down in the middle of the work day which delayed people as much as 10+h for those who had a average ride of 15 minutes. People started biking and walking to work because it was so much quicker.
I remember once pulling a lawn chair out of my trunk on 101 just north of Hollywood. It was a while before anybody moved except for the white lining motorcycles.

Yikes. 😳
I grew up in Boston, I could get anywhere within about 15 miles of downtown faster on a bicycle than by car (or anything else, for that matter).
California needs better cars:
