It’s an otherwise lovely day, but you find your car is stuck on the freeway.
You really need to get your car to where you’re going, but there’s currently a traffic jam that stopped you.
You also need to get your other car to the same place, so rather than sit in your first car, you do the natural thing and go get your second car and drive it onto the same highway.
It gets stuck too, and you’ve added to the number of vehicles in the traffic ham, but hey, at least you didn’t sit there doing nothing.
