Default My car does not like IDLE

I've noticed that sometimes when I'm in traffic on the freeway, and I'm trying to let the car just ride along at idle (I have an automagic) the car will sometimes start reving up on it's own. It doesn't always do it, but I've seen it pick up to around 1500 rpms by itself. It doesn't surge, it will pick up and keep going until I slow it down with the breaks. It will even do it going uphill, (uphill in Miami means going uphill on the overpasses) it's not like it's picking up speed going downhill. Or sometimes if I'm cruising at a low speed, lightly on the gas, when I take my foot off the gas, it will just stay at around 1500 rpms.


Why doesn't my car like to idle at peace???????
