A road can carry a maximum number of vehicles. Add more vehicles and
the rate drops. (Substract vehicles below the maximum and the rate
drops, too.) All this is well known -- very well known.
Does anyone know why it took so long for officials to start

those roads? It must have driven people crazy to sit for hours in that
sweltering heat, looking across the barrier at all those empty lanes.
