In most models of traffic flow, the car density p is the only free parameter in determining the average car velocity <υ>. The critical car density P_C, which is defined to be the car density separating the jamming phase (with <υ>=0) and the moving phase (with <υ>>0), is an important physical quantity to investigate. By means of simple statistical argument, we show that P_c < 1 for the Biham-Middleton-Levine model of traffic flow in two or higher spatial dimensions. In particular, we show that P_c≤11/ 12 in 2 dimension and P_c≤1-((D-1)/2D)^D in D(D>2) dimensions.
