Is there a simple way to beat bottle-neck traffic? Possibly. You tell me please. Let's say we all arrive to work at certain times base on the distance we are from our home to our office. Would that relieve the bottle-neck traffic jams we are seeing in highly congested areas? It doesn't matter where your work location is, rather, you would arrive at a certain time base on the commute distance from home to office. If you live 5 miles from work, then maybe you would arrive at 7:45 start time. If you lived 50+miles from work, you would have an arrival time of say 8:30. The Flow of the traffic would not encounter a bottle-neck like today, when everyone has to arrive at work at 8:00. Like pouring liquid out of a soda bottle. If you tip it upside down and try to get all of it to come out, you get a congestion at the narrowest part of the opening. But if you tilt the bottle slightly and allow just enough liquid to pour through without a congestion, then eventually all the liquid will flow freely from the bottle.
