The FXX cable network is amidst a massive marathon of all 552 episodes of the Simpsons. Joseph Rose, took a break from cartoon bliss to produce ten of his favorite scenes building jokes out of transportation experiences.

"Anyone who sits through just a couple yellow-skinned hours of the ultimate marathon (lasting 12 days!) will discover, the animated series created by Portland native Matt Groening has always been good for a traffic joke," writes Joseph Rose.
Rose's list of ten best "commuting gags" from The Simpsons includes Home driving with Google Glass, Homer singing "Cars" by Gary Numan, and, of course, the following classic song, penned by Conan O'Brien.
