I'm not sure what country you're in but here in the US we think the solution to all traffic issues is to expand. More lanes, more signals, more rules. The solution is actually the opposite. It's been proven that adding more signage and signals decreases driver awareness. It's also been proven that adding more lanes creates more traffic.

The real solution is to build infrastructure that supports a variety of transportation methods (trains, bicycles, walking, etc.) and have more robust driving tests so it's harder to get a license. But that's not gonna happen anytime soon.
