Description | Silicon Valley has lost 196,200 jobs since the dot-com collapse three years ago. And it seems like every laid-off worker was a commuter on Highway 17.
Today, traffic is flowing more smoothly on every Santa Clara County freeway than it did back in the boom-clogged days of 2000. The freeways haven't been this free since 1997, and there is a cruel twist in that. The more the economy bleeds jobs, the easier vehicles flow through the valley's arteries.
