Let's increase them even more after the lanes are removed

    Congestion will increase with the added car lane. And that’s a fact, Jack! Every added lane to highways everywhere has attracted more car traffic and resulted in no commute time improvement. All of us need to start electing politicians who know things and understand or can at least comprehend how the world of common people actually functions!

    Well, to be fair, there is a point when adding lanes will remove all congestion. It is when road infrastructure has become so obscenely huge and land use has become so stretched thin, that the whole monstrosity is lethal in anything but a car and utterly unaffordable because of crazy infrastructure and maintenance costs. Needless to say that the area will also look and feel like a mixture of hell and a bitumen crater.
