Biggest advice: this isn’t a city builder as much as a traffic simulator.
Traffic simulation has always been a thing, but Skylines takes it to a level you might not expect/realize.
Every single vehicle is doing a task with a effect. Transporting goods(for businesses to sell or as raw material for production)/cims/services.
Every. Single. One
So if you plop a fire station on a one way, it has to send trucks all the way around into to respond to a call up stream.

One thing I definitely neglected early on was creating options for travel that didn't involve a vehicle. Zoning residential near commercial zones and providing walking/biking paths is actually a significant relief to traffic on the road.
