Loading...We’ve all been stuck in traffic. Cars have revolutionized the way we get from one place to another, and along with the amazing ability to travel hundreds of miles in the span of hours, we have all been subject to many, many hours of sitting in traffic. That’s just how it works; a lot of people trying to use the same method of transportation on roads with limited space at the same time. But what if, through advances in technology or even simple changes in our behavior, we can significantly reduce or even eliminate traffic altogether?
The video above, made by CGP Grey, analyzes why traffic even happens in the first place and some possible ways to reduce traffic. Of course, there is only one real way to completely get rid of traffic, and that’s autonomous cars. But CGP Grey’s interesting insights into how traffic starts and spreads may be able to help us change our driving habits and become better drivers in the time being.
