A lot of studies around traffic congestion read like this, honestly.
They are written that way because those studies are commissioned by municipalities looking to get rid of traffic without limiting the use of cars in any way and the researchers really need to be clear on the connection.
There's a political party in my city that wants to reduce traffic congestions by making the alternatives (public transport, cycling) unattractive.
They think they know what they're doing... You can't make that shit up.
