Stacy’s Reviews > Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do and What It Says About Us > Status Update

I agree that our vehicles are "just a part of a loosely organized, greatly inefficient mass-transit system."

I feel like this sentiment sums up a lot of human endeavors that we accept the dangers of: "If we wanted dramatically safer roads overnight - virtually fatality-free - it wouldn't actually be difficult. We could simply lower the speed limit..."

Interesting that how Mexico City improved traffic safety was to replace male traffic officers with female ones because they are less likely to take bribes. This was borne out in a US economic study as well.
"...the countries that rank as least corrupt on the global market indices tend to have more women in government."
Seeing the same trends pointed out during quarantine around the world...

"Affluence breeds traffic."

Nice to know that the police scanners have codes to protect people.
