The Hyperloop was never meant to be built. Elon Musk admitted it was all about fueling opposition to California’s high-speed rail project so it would get canceled.
He never planned to improve transportation; he just wants to keep people trapped in cars.

3 seconds is speed dependent and congestion is a function of the speed slowing down due to too much traffic (Or a wreck/something bottle necking the traffic).
When everything goes down to 5/10mph, there will be some pretty major space savings and when things are moving at full speed, congestion isn’t a problem.
I’d say you can have congestion at speed. And you have congestion at traffic lights (this idea won’t be going on freeways) because of the amount of vehicles, which this doesn’t change, and because there is a delay in the next vehicle going, which this doesn’t change.
Too much traffic as in too many vehicles, which this doesn’t change.
The space length savings is really miniscule in the grand picture.
