there is also a big of fear, that if you go to an alternate route it may also be congested, and it will all have been for nothing.
radio is pretty good with traffic news, but how many people would even think of local radio?

Yeah, I get that there can also be a bit of a sunk cost thing along with regret minimization going on too. I think game theory suggests that you should switch routes the instant you hit significant congestion though, because P(congestion on the current route)=1 as soon as you hit it.
