She feels stressed out and sometimes she feels annoyed because she doesn’t want to be late. After school, she has to take the bus home, which is quite crowded.

The writer knows that cars have negative effects and she wants to help the environment (“We know that cars are bad for us”, all quite simple, isn’t it? Five easy ways to improve our environment”) but she thinks it will be difficult for her to give up her car (“I’ve got to pick up my daughter from school … The traffic is going to be horrible, but what can I do?”).
The road to destruction refers to the fact that the cars on the road will
eventually lead to the destruction of our planet.
