Highway traffic

How does DA solve highway traffic, and more specifically highways clogging up like this? Whenever I build highways in my vidya gayme they run like clockwork, what am I doing right that the government and high-paid traffic engineers can't do?

    Your videogames don't simulate tens of millions of people. Cities Skylines only simulates up to 64,000 cars at once with mods, 16,000 without mods.

      It probably also doesn't stimulate dumbfricks or people exiting freeways on to tiny city streets

    do the highways in vidya game account for the fact that 1) there are crashes and 2) every car slows down to 5mph to view said crash?

      They don't even simulate police pulling people over.

      Might work for some cities, but most would still have enough people left to generate traffic jams. We would be better looking for solutions that aren't humanitarian disasters.

      Public transport.
      Most people don't like driving the just want to get where they are going and do what they need to do.
      No need to van cars or create new regulations if you make a great public transport system traffic will drop.

      This is the best option. Only people who really want to drive would still be driving in this scenario.

      Build a walkable city and do what is possible to keep the wage gap down so people who work in the city can also live there. City to suburb traffic is the main issue.

      You could also decrease the population by like 50%. That would work too.

      First half sounds good. Not sure about second half though. How exactly would you decrease the population?

      Any freshman economics student can tell you that highways are overused because they're underpriced. If you add enough tolls to properly cover all the costs of highway maintenance, (1) people will be incentivized to (a) use other forms of transportation or (b) move closer to their workplaces, and (2) the people who don't use highways won't be forced to subsidize through taxes the people who do use highways.

      Interesting proposal

      This is pretty much it. You just have to build networks extensive enough that people can reasonably commute by train from somewhere they actually want to live to where they work, and when necessary provide enough of a police presence to keep trains from becoming rolling homeless camps. Some US cities are part of the way there with commuter rail, and unlike some people I think the park & ride system is totally fine, but it's let down by having far too few lines, too few trains a day on those lines, and inadequate local transport once you're into town.

        Park and ride is a great stop gap especially for more rural areas.
        Of course if a city has more than a couple of million people at that point density is such that true light rail or subway systems start to make sense.
        One of the biggest advantages of High speed rail is increased range for comfortable commute times
        with High speed rail if you live by the station and it is reliable you can live 50 miles away and still only have a half hour commute.

      unless you are ok with factories and chemical plants within walking distance of homes, this is never going to happen. people don't actually want to live near the places they work.

        Some people don't care, and they can enjoy not commuting.

        Put hormonal birth control in the water, push feminism and female education via the media and financial institutions, put corn syrup in all the food so people get fat and less virile, use the government's classified budget to pay women to be pornstars through services like onlyfans.
        Basically all the stuff they do now.

    State government should only ever repair the most outside lane.
    Also anyone in the passing lane for more than ~5 seconds while being able to get back in the driving lane gets the dęathę penalty.

    No more traffic jams. Wow that was easy.

    Cities:Skylines will despawn cars and trains that are stopped for too long. You probably have some areas that are congested but the game let's you cheat through it.
