Considering the really terrible state of the highways, we should all have "road rage". One way to constructively vent rage is to keep voting out the incumbents until they come up with realistic relief for commuters. No highway relief = one term. Another not-so-constructive way would be to spray paint the "Welcome" sign to each state that has excessive road congestion, covering up the governors name. You know how those signs read, "The Governor of the State of Blah-Blah welcomes you. Please drive safely." OR We could change these signs to read, "The Governor asks your forgiveness as you crawl along at 10 mph. Do not worry about driving safely, you are already slow enough that highway death is not a concern."
