Hot tip: if your bumper to bumper during congestion or construction periods. You need to have at least 2-3 (minimum 1) car spaces between you and the car/truck in front of you. This way you’ll maintain a steady speed (maybe btwn 2-9 mph) rather than coming to complete halt every stretch.

That just invites people to keep pulling in front of you, and now you're driving slowly while the lane in front of you is moving faster, and you've become the traffic jam.

Just like like my comment - you got hooked for no reason. The congestion is already there why are you gonna pile up.. on a queue..

You try to keep 3 car spaces in front of you. Someone pulls in front of you, so now there's only 2 spaces. So when traffic starts moving again, you stay still and wait for there to be 3 spaces. Then somebody pulls in front of you, so there's only 2 spaces in front of you, so you stop and wait for there to be 3 spaces in front of you....

Everybody behind you is going slower now because you won't match the speed of traffic.

Even hotter tip: on a highway, if the line on your right is free, switch to it. Left line(s) is only for overtaking.

Once drivers learn this simple rule, speed limits can be lifted on certain highway parts so whoever wants to go faster now can fulfill their desire.

But but but but

(Continuing on the meta where slowbros and campers took aim at a bumper sticker that said "keep right" with strawmen)

Yep. Tailgating causes fullstops.
