Well, it certainly beats how it was before, but there isn’t less traffic now – they just put it in a tunnel.

Think about it this way, it's even worse in big parts of the world.

Compared to other countries, yes. And that’s not even comparing it to the US, which would be like kicking someone lying on the ground.

Try riding a train in rural France, outside the 5 TGV lines, for instance, and you’ll pray for Deutsche Bahn. Ever been to the UK?

But we could have much better PT if Germany weren’t the world’s greatest car exporter by far and the ministry of traffic deep in the pockets of automobile makers, that’s true as well.
