Why is there a big traffic jam in expressway every National Day?

During the National Day, traffic jams have become a common sight in expressway, and everyone is used to it. If there is any reason behind this, I think there are two main reasons. First of all, the excessive traffic pressure in the city is in sharp contrast with the increasing number of private cars. The second is that there are too many people returning home and traveling during the National Day, and there is no rush hour congestion caused by the rush hour. Let's talk about the main reasons for traffic jams in expressway during the National Day from these two aspects.

The contradiction between urban traffic and the number of private cars If we adjust the schedule back to 30 years ago, I am afraid that even traffic jams are rare, because there were not many people with cars at that time, but today, in the 2/kloc-0 century, there are more and more people with cars. Many people in the city can't afford to buy a house, but not many people can't afford a car, and more and more people have cars. At present, one of the problems they face is the difficulty of parking and driving.

It is obvious that there are more and more cars, which have exceeded the carrying capacity of the existing pavement, and natural traffic will be congested.

Affected by the National Day holiday, this is a fast food era. Everyone is pursuing an efficient life. We are meticulous in our work and race against time. Many times we have to work overtime on Saturday and Sunday. How can we make good use of the National Day holiday? Perhaps a long time ago, most people have planned how to use the National Day holiday. Finally, when the day came, all the people filled their tanks and prepared to travel. Those who should go home to visit relatives and those who should go out to travel have all gone out to travel, but never imagined that the traffic situation was so congested. Congestion caused by rush hour travel has appeared.

To sum up, the phenomenon of traffic jams in expressway is mainly due to the excessive number of private cars and the impact of the National Day holiday.
