Lol you can tell how old this picture is because no one has those asshole, melt your face led headlights.

No it is not. There copies of cars everywhere. Looks like they just doubled everything horizontally.

Classic you’re being downvoted by those with little internet common sense. The image is doctored and the patterns repeat frequently - you’re right.

Ehm, nope? You know that white and black/dark blue/dark greyish are the most prevalent car colors?
Look at the trucks and minivans that are a bit more distinct. Their patterns with other white cars around do not repeat.
Also the one in the picture only has 20 lanes. The US widest has 26 lanes

Go count them for yourself (or just search Katy Freeway into Google maps and turn on satellite view if you don’t want to click this link)
The number of lanes is insane

You sound insufferable and also you’re wrong.

The claim was that everything was copied horizontally, which is evidently not the case in the picture. Also as i have linked the widest “freeway” in the US has even more lanes.
Thank you for posting the article. As you can read in the article they prove the fact that the image is altered by pointing out the number of lanes being wrong, not by “suspicious patterns” in the cars.
The claim that the image was just doubled horizontally simply does not check out. There was more effort put into creating the fake.

In the original there are definitely suspicious repeating and mirrored patterns.

America bad and everything but this looks like it’s a photo of the China National Highway 110 traffic jam

The traffic in Beijing and even more so Seoul really disappointed me. Why do so many people drive when theres subways and buses every 2 minutes at rush hour? I mean I get Beijing a little, all the roads are so wide and the subway stations are so massive, but seoul even has dedicated bus lanes that beat cars at rush hour, and people still drive.
