09/18/2007: "Drivers waste one week a year in traffic"

Drivers waste nearly an entire work week each year sitting in traffic on the way to and from their jobs, according to a national study released Tuesday. The nation's drivers languished in traffic delays for a total of 4.2 billion hours in 2005, up from 4 billion the year before, according to the Texas Traffic Institute's urban mobility report. That's about 38 hours per driver.

[ Think of all the good things we could do with that time. Take your cities back so you don't have to live in suburbs. ]
