Traffic Flirting 

The act of catching a girls or guys eye while sitting in busy traffic, often resulting in friendly smiles and maybe a wink.
Extreme success can result in winding down windows and chatting/exchanging details.
David: "Hey Skeeve, how was your trip home?"
"Long, but got some serious traffic flirting in with this babe in an Audi."

Traffic on Penistone Road 

I'm late because Traffic on Penistone Road was busy this morning

Traffic circle

A roadway intersection where the roads don't directly cross (like at a stoplight) but enter/exit on a circular road. When well designed it is very superior to a normal intersection, but prone to confuse people who learned to drive in a place without them. Poorly designed or outdated they are a recipe for disaster.
If you live in New Jersey, but don't know what a traffic circle is, you're living an unbelievably sheltered life.

When correctly designed, you should always yield when entering the circle, but never when in the circle.

Traffic Prophet 

A Person who, while driving, prides him or herself in predicting the actions of the driver behind or in-front of them before the driver does it.
DRIVER: Okay he's driving a Buick so that automatically means he's a senior citizen WHICH MEANS he's gonna slow down to at least 10 mph here at this turn because the elderly are as we all know, terrified of taking a turn too fast and running the risk of flipping over their car.

(*the person in the other car does just that*)

DRIVER: I Knew It!

PERSON IN SHOTGUN: Let it Go, You're such a Traffic Prophet!

traffic mash-up 

When the music paying from two cars sounds like one song.
While driving and listening to house music, the rap lyrics in the car next to me made a perfect traffic mash-up.
