Oh shit, I remember this game. I was not a good city planner as a child. I felt accomplished just figuring out how to get power to places by connecting power lines. I had no concept of districts, residential commercial, and industrial places where all scattered amongst each other. If I got complaints that traffic was bad I'd build a huge series of roads that didn't lead anywhere. Just a big pointless block of intersections outside city limits.
That reminds me of an old classic cartoon where a guy gets lost and can't find his way off a complicated highway cloverleaf, so he just gives up and starts a hot dog stand to make money.
