Description

Holiday markets and festivals are great. The traffic we sit in to get to them is quite the opposite. If we built more of the walkable environments that we love (those which festivals replicate), we wouldn't have to sit in standstill traffic, merely to access them for a couple of hours.

Also, U.S. traffic deaths are on the rise. It's a uniquely American predicament.

Further context:

The rise in U.S. traffic deaths (via NYT).
The Columbus Zoo traffic jam, last weekend (via the Columbus Dispatch).
