What kind of bollocks is that... plenty of traffic on the downtown streets at rush hour, it's not jammed solid like some places in TO but it's enough that google puts red lines on the map.

Different definition of “traffic”. As in “I was stuck in traffic”. There can be lots of cars on the road and yet getting stuck in it isn’t going to happen. The kind of traffic that pretty much doesn’t exist in K-W is the “stuck in” kind. Of course it exists here and there, but in many places in Toronto it exists every day for hours. Here it’s once in a while or very briefly. The road in front of my street typically fills up for about 10 minutes at a certain time in the afternoon. That’s not a reason to do anything about it.
You don't have to get stock at a dead stop to be experiencing congestion, though.
If you trip at 2am with no other cars on the road would 15 minutes, but during rush hour it takes 25 or 30 minutes, even if you are going steady and not getting stuck, you are still experiencing traffic congestion.
