The best ‘technology’ to fight congestion is literally the oldest form of technologies we have from the industrial era. Yet, the dinosaurs who rule the state are hell bent on the farce that cars=independence.
The argument that rail is too expensive is also laughable. They just widened what-two miles?- on the highway by Salem, and at what cost? The dirty little secret in the world of civil engineering is that adding lanes to highways does nothing but add to congestion.

Cars ARE freedom!
Freedom from the driver having to pay for the polution they generate
Freedom from the driver having to pay the full price to maintain the roads
Freedom from having less lethal forms of transportation available Freedom to sit in traffic!
Freedom to be "randomly" stopped searched and ticketed
Cars are all about freedom man!
