At this point in your life you've driven somewhere, I'm sure, whether you were the driver or a passenger. And, probably like the rest of us, you've sat in traffic at some time or another. It's probably the biggest con of a commute, after all, who doesn't love sitting in bumper to bumper for a couple of hours, crawling along at 5 mph?
