Internships are tricky for a few reasons, I think. For one, a lot of college students tend to have very generic/entry level engineering skill sets (not really any fault of their own) so it becomes quite difficult to differentiate onese

Or make it so that people can't drive on major city-center/core roads. Make them pedestrian and bus lanes. Encourage people to take public transportation and away from using their own personal vehicles.
