Why doesn't Congress outlaw traffic Jams?

Question:
We can't go on indefinitely building multi-lane superhighways, and it seems like whenever you turn on the local channel, there is always a traffic jam somewhere. So, here's a simple solution. Every household would have a computer installed in the foyer, and also connected to their vehicles. When you are leaving your house, you have to punch into the computer where you want to go. The computer would then tell you which route you HAVE to take, or alternately, you may NOT leave now, due to too much traffic. In that case, the computer would not allow the vehicle to start. It's stupid to get into a car, and go sit in a mile long traffic jam idling the engine with hundreds of other vehicles. So, how do you get to work? Simple; if you can get 4 other households to hitch a ride with you, then you can go out. Thus traffic is reduced by a factor of 80% via forced carpooling, and you would only have to drive your car 1 day a week, if everyone shared.
