text: Traffic jams are aggravating to most people, with the decreasing number of car owners time is being saved. There is less traffic. Andrew Selsky studied car-free day in Bogota, and he stated "rush-hour restrictions have dramatically cut traffic(28)", this means time is being saved and people are getting to their destinations faster. Another idea was said by Carlos Arturo Plaza "it's a good opprotunity to take away stress...(Selsky 24)". Congestion stresses everyone out, whether running on time, running late or just taking a leisurely drive. It makes everyone stress. Congestion actually decreased 60 percent in Paris (Duffer 14). Heidrun Walter also said "When I had a car I was always tense. I'm much happier this way."
