At least critical mass wasn't responsible for this particular traffic jam. Wouldn't that have been ironic?

Hmmm. "swerving onto the bike path" - can't say if the reporter took liberties with reality, or if anyone on a bicycle just got plowed down...? I'd say the unspoken real problem in this news storyy is that on their way to the hospital the car got stuck in grid lock traffic. This means we have too many cars and not enough people using alternatives like bikes, walking, buses, car pooling, van pools, etc.!! Not to mention that newborn is subject to increased risk of respiratory disease due to the increasing levels of motor vehicle air pollution in Dane County because of all of this unnecessary driving! Too bad there is no "comment on this story" link at
the WKOW website.
