I think you mean Jevon's Paradox? Wikipedia claims it has been studied and that the effect is small: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_paradox#Cause https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jevons_paradox#Cause I wonder though if the more significant limitation for most people is the value placed on their time currently, so they seek to minimize travel and commute times (rather than minimizing for fuel costs). And if so, does will the rise of self-driving + EV paradoxically increase the number of miles someone is willing to sit behind the wheel in the coming decade?
