Southern Californians spend more time stuck in traffic than other drivers in the United States--said to be an average of 96 hours annually. This number seems ridiculously low. If you're stuck in freeway traffic two hours a day, that would amount to over 500 hours a year. And that's just for commuting five days a week.

Remember, that 96-hour figure is an average of all commuters in each metro area -- which means it includes those who live 15 minutes away from where they work, too.

Here is the biggest part of the lie about pollution and cars - it is buildings that generate 60% of our usage of fuel and cause way more problems than cars in the air quality issue.
I think it is time for everyone to move back into tents and go to markets like in Iraq to do business - time to return to the 14th century like the EnviroWackos and the Arabs want - not.
