it's not just a traffic jam

it's an enrich-those-who-make-the-fuel type scam.

Why don't we have flying cars yet? I get stuck in traffic every day going to and from work.

And most everyone of those vehicles are tied to a dollar denominated halflife term loan in some shape or form.

Should ask if that is a before or after photo.

Unintended or unexpected consequences of the human crowd. Expected to improve traffic flows, which it did, jamming in more cars, faster than before. Technically I'd say it was a success but now they have to come up with some other plan to smooth the flow. I hope they don't notice that story down here. They would use it as another selling feature for unlawful toll roads.

Common sense dictates that one can only stuff one pound of shit into a one pound sized container!

That is a given fact of physics !

So when they try to stuff 10,000,000 pounds of shit into that same one pound sized container, the results will be smelly and very messy.

What ever math they used in this project failed spectacularly !

But got to give them a "A" for effort !

Plus the grin I got looking at those photos!
