This is why people have a commuting car and a track car. Your track car is often not your commuting car

Easy peasy, let's simply all own a commuting car and a race car. /s

Y'all pretend roads outside the city and weekends don't exist. My commute is a joy.

Exactly, the comic is showing an urban driver's problem. Fortunately the USA is massive and we have many more uncrowded roads across its vast and beautiful landscape that drivers can travel freely upon. Traffic jams are rare in my area, but occasionally I visit Atlanta or some similarly large city and marvel at how much it sucks to drive in their traffic.

True freedom includes having room to breathe and roam. For those who haven't experienced it, my condolences.
