35? That seems too slow. Several years ago some pranksters in Chicago drove side by side at 55MPH and caused a MASSIVE backup for miles.

- thaumasiotes 1y agoThat's more of an illustration that throughput isn't something people want than an illustration that throughput is higher at 75 than at 35. You see a lot of blanket assumption, in discussions of traffic, that throughput should be maximized, and almost no examination of whether increasing throughput is a goal that makes any sense. For example, working from home has catastrophic effects on throughput.
- wombatpm 1y agoIt’s throughput in combination with demand. That’s why Chicago has reversible lanes on the major highways. Inbound and outbound throughput needs vary during the day.
