Traffic congestion affects various aspects of daily life, influencing both personal well-being and economic productivity. Long delays during commutes lead to wasted time, stress, and reduced efficiency. This not only affects people's work performance but also decreases the overall quality of life.

Key points: Traffic problems often result in:

  • Increased travel time
  • Higher levels of stress
  • Reduced work-life balance

The economic impact of traffic congestion is also significant. Time lost in traffic translates to lost potential earnings for businesses and individuals. Additionally, the cost of maintaining roads and the environmental toll of idling vehicles further contribute to the burden of poor traffic management.
