I can assure that anyone in a traffic jam disagrees with you–violently so.

More roads aren’t a solution.

I lived in European capital and I live in Bay Area, California now.

I would take sitting in traffic jam in my car in comfort with audiobook and AC anytime over being in freaking people jam in subway.

Especially during flu and covid waves.

More roads are the only solution, and have been for at least 4000 years.

For those 4 millenia, people have gravitated to a 30 minute each way commute, on average.

More roads implies bigger cities and more amenities / economic growth. If bikes mean more people can commute to the city, then they will eventually win.
