Why would traffic actually be slower? Have you driven much in busy cities? Usually in California for example, when traffic conditions allow such, the actual advice given in things like drivers ed is to keep with the flow of traffic including in situations like freeway driving where traffic might be going much faster than the posted speed limit. Certainly ai might drive slower in places flagged as actually necessitating it, but if anything I'd think the advantage of a fleet of ai drivers is that cars could go even faster than before because suddenly there's nobody stubbornly slowing a lane down unnecessarily out of either panic or simply obstinance that they're in the right because they're going the posted speed limit.

That's awful advice. It's something that feels right, but in reality only exaggerates the push-pull accordion effect of too fast, too heavy traffic.
- thorncorona 3y agoIt’s actually the law to go the speed of traffic.
- trgn 3y agoan awful law when the speed of traffic is too high for conditions.
- ttfkam 3y agoOne major gripe I have with driving in California is no clear traffic law requiring folks to move over when getting passed on the right. It's not the speed. It's the speed difference as cars end up weaving between lanes in traffic because slower vehicles sit in the passing lane(s).
