Traffic Jams

Postby anzac_77 » Mon Feb 21, 2011 11:06 am

As someone who sits in the Nudgee Gateway carpark at least once a week, thought i would share a few links that, if all drivers were actually taught, then traffic jams wouldnt exist, and who much better would that be?

Kind of counterintuitive that driving slower can actually get you there faster, its also the d#$%heads who think that racing up the side and then stopping to merge can somehow get them home 5 seconds earlier... WOW...

As for Nudgee, they could put the speed up from 90 to 100, but of course it would take 1 fender bender for them to blame the increased speed limit instead of the incompetence of some drivers
