Traffic can be a problem any time of day, depending on the geographical area you're dealing with. If you're traveling across the Columbia River, to Vancouver ... there are only 2 bridges. If you're traveling to the west from the downtown area, there's really only two "high-volume" routes going through the Portland hills. Which make those difficult commutes in rush hour. Because of the limited routes, accidents along any of those four can cause problems any time of day.

The terrain to the east of the river is fairly flat. So there are lots more route options, and it's easier to avoid backups.
