Because too many of them think "road construction bad" and "no new roads good"
despite the fact that congestion creates all sorts of headaches.  Some of them
are just plain anti-car and think it's an evil device.

Nope, to them, it should be all bikes and public transit.  As if that's a
solution for everyone.
