This is awesome, although part of the traffic problem is the horrible condition of the roads around Seattle, and a failure to enforce basic traffic laws - specifically - the left lane is for passing, and probably more importantly, do <i>not</i> stop in an intersection. Just because the light is yellow, doesn't mean we need to stack more cars into the middle of the road.<p>I walked to work (when I lived in Seattle recently) but the amount of traffic jams I saw caused by both regular people in their cars, and the mass transit bus drivers, driving right into an intersection as the light turned red is crazy. I don't know how you can plan traffic flow around it, because as green as the light might be, no one is moving with a bus sitting in the middle of the intersection.
