A private firm which tracks traffic in more than 70 cities across the U.S. submitted a survey report which found traffic congestion declining in the America's 100 most populated cities last year. 

INRIX, based in Kirkland, explains the decrease of congestion is the result of the soft economy in the U.S., as well as, the rising prices of gas, which pushed car buyers into holding on to older cars.

In an official statement released by the INRIX which reads that,

INRIX also found that wherever unemployment is high, such as in cities like Houston, Texas and Detroit, the number of the traffic of vehicles increases. Cities with moderate employment gains such as Miami and Atlanta have also showed the momentum of increase in the traffic increase. The private firm also suggested that the indication of the growing number of the traffic is clear indication that the car industry in the entire U.S. is going through the rough patches.
