Los Angeles, for the 15th time in a row, was named by the Texas Transportation Institute as the city with the worst traffic.
"The region won the unenviable ranking in an annual traffic mobility study released Thursday by the Texas Transportation Institute. The study calculated that Los Angeles-area motorists spent an average of 136 hours in rush-hour congestion in 2000--an increase of two hours over 1999. It also estimated that 75% of the area's freeways and streets are clogged during commute times--another statistic that leads the nation. By all estimates, Los Angeles is ready to 16-peat."
