Here's a surprise: LA traffic the worst

Surprise, surprise - Los Angeles is the most congested city in the nation, according to a report set for release today by a traffic-information provider. Sue Doyle in the Daily News.

And Thursday evenings from 5 to 6 is the absolute worst time for Angelenos to hit the roads, according to the first national scorecard report by INRIX, a Washington, D.C.-based traffic-information provider studying America's roadways.

"It's striking the amount of roads and number of places in America that are perpetually congested," said Rick Shuman, INRIX's vice president.
