People are rushing. It doesn't say "getting home quick" hour.
But you are right.
Good Luck.
P.S. Actually there are many places in USA where traffic is NOT so bad and rush hour is actaully for rushing home quickly. You and I just live in rat hole of a city.

They're all in cars because they're in a rush, and their rushing out of places to rush to another. If it weren't for the volume of cars with drivers rushing they'd be going as quickly as is legally allowed, which would be rushing.

Everyone is rushing to get home at the same time.

Because it is an oxymoron. People are rushing to get home or to work, but the amount of people clogs the roads, hence the oxymoron.

Probably because everyone's rushing to get home (or to work depending on whether you're talking morning or evening)
