Probably not. I have driven in that - it's not fun. The sad thing is that the Bay Area is just as bad, with San Jose being arguably worse than LA now. It's a city without any kind of a competent public transit system, and a highway infrastructure originally designed to handle the city's population in the mid-50s when the population was under 100k. The city is now home to over a million.
Has America visited Japan recently ?
I guess you will visit it during the Olympics in Tokyo 2020, with its population nearing 10 Million maybe look at some of the nice magnetic hovering trains, the distributed city centers and new driverless buses.
The above is - hilariously - still kind of a low sell for Tokyo.
By any reasonable standard of inclusion Tokyo has... basically the population of California.
Also:
1 million, you said?
If my attempt to copy paste Japanese has not gone horribly wrong the above should be Saitama.
Ostensibly that's a city of 1.2 million people.
Of course it's not. It's a part of Tokyo with its own mascott.
I'd be willing to bet money that the above is their normal traffic and this is as bad as it gets.
But, hey, Muricans had that inspirational super diverse Super Bowl add where they claimed to have had Ze Autobahn before the Germans did, while they don't even have it today.
Which demonstrated that - while not having it - they don't even understand it.
So how would we expect them to be good at any other part of transportation, when they're allready too confused to understand roads.
But hey, they are making lots of progress with fining and arresting men of color for manspreading. Priorities.
