And side by side drivers. Or people that don't yield to faster traffic. Or the ones that pass 1 MPH faster than the vehicle they are passing. Thank them for increasing commute times.

Really not that bad considering we're the 4th largest city.

But it makes Dallas look better than Houston by comparison.

Having multiple business centers helps a lot I think. I never understood why cities put all of the jobs in 1 location.

It doesn't matter how many lanes we make our highways if the metropolitan area keeps expanding the way it has been.

It's not that hard if you pass on the left shoulder like I do.

I call that football field driving. Idiots leaving a whole NFL sized gap between themselves and the car in front of them just cruising like they're tripping on some kind of drug in a daze. Drive!

Football field drivers and side by side drivers are the worst for me. If you want to drive 20 on 1960 fine. Be my guest but slow up and get behind other slow joker next to you and drive your slow a$$es on and let the rest of us pass you by. Like Ludacris said "Move _____, get out that way!"

That's just being courteous and aware of the road. If you see cars just stacked behind you get over and drive behind the other slow drivers.

Like the expensive cars that drive behind 18 wheelers. Texters LOVE driving behind 18 wheelers because anyone with half a brain gets from right behind them. If you want to drive slow fall in line with the other slow folks.

Flawed data in my opinion as it based only on TomTom areas. Many major cities aren't included. Mumbai doesn't even make the list and it's congestion beats Houston hands down. It's absolutely maddening.
