What causes traffic jam's in your area?

If it was wearing a bikini, it was a crossdresser. Dee was raised on a working ranch in Wallowa County, NE Oregon. She noticed immediatly, that was not a cow.
 
rain, snow, sun, high speed chases, deer, stupid drivers/too many drivers on the road (1,000,000 or so getting into town everyday).. take your pick
 
Whenever my wife uses Google driving directions, two estimated times are provided. One with traffic and one without traffic. She always plans for the one with traffic. Her reasoning is that she causes traffic. She has been driving for eight years but it's one month experience ninety-six times.

Now that's funny!!! Went riding yesterday and that bay horse of mine had the worst case of gas ever! Laughed like h*** every time my wife was down wind of us!
 
Each week, a motorcyclist hitting a car while splitting lanes causes a traffic jam. I am told that splitting lanes is legal but in the event of an accident, the motorcyclist is always found at fault. Isn't that just great! We get to sit in traffic while the daredevil gets scrapped off the pavement but at least we know he's gonna pay, unless of course, he’s dead. I love the ones' that grab attitude towards people who didn't notice them. That takes nerve. You scare the daylights out of some eight finger white knuckler and then insult her to boot. A good friend tossed a wad of snuff out his window right into the face of a motorcyclist. It was an accident and he wasn't expecting a motorcycle to be a foot from his window at 50 MPH. We both laugh about that one. I've thought about taking up chewing tobacco.

Smart signal lights cause city traffic. Ever since the sensors were installed, the signal changes the moment there is no car over the sensor. As a result, people race to be at the end of the pack in order to make it through the light. People have become used to driving faster just to get through the lights and now they are speeding everywhere, even in parking lots.

It's like the traffic engineers tossed up their hands and said: You know what, haphazard might work.
 
Isn't it always the DOT's fault?

The DOT is maybe a bit worse for traffic than my 90 year old aunt Dot who would drive you over if you even thought about getting between her and bingo. It was worse when the old bats all tried to leave the bingo hall at the same time. When I had to pick up grandma from the bingo hall I would park a block away and two streets over, they were very derby'ish about their driving.
