I also ride in the suburbs. As I had indicated a 20 minute drive over time became longer due to the natural growth of traffic congestion. And that was only for 4km.
As for cycling, half my ride is through the park trail and the other half is through car traffic. Congestion or auto collisions don't affect my ride. The only thing that does affect my ride is how deep the snow is in the trails.
