Pretty sure transmission type has nothing to do with it -- traffic is stop and go in plenty of places where most cars have manual transmissions.

I'm increasingly convinced that it's due to so many drivers optimizing for local minima, at the expense of not just everyone around them, but of themselves thirty seconds later.




Duh, I meant local maxima, of course -- at least, that's what those drivers are trying for. What they get most of the time are more like minima, of course.
