Yeah I think it's just WAY too many shitty intersections. Traffic would prob flow terribly (I don't actually know about this stuff but shut up). Also, how would traffic lights work? Where would they be? If you had them everywhere traffic would be super slow; if you didn't, it would still probably be super slow.

[@Light-du4kc]

grid systems cause more traffic, but I guess you're objectively right about everything

[@JasonMitchellofcompsci]

You can fix them by not having every road built up to the same level. Also, very major roads shouldn't be accessible by all smaller roads. By having easy right hand turn ons and offs you reduce the load on traffic lights. Over passes can be used to make a semi-major road continue without breaking up a very major road. Most non-grid systems have these features. The problem is the two never seem to be combined. The problem is when people do initial layout of grids they don't recognize that you want a distribution of road thicknesses. If you randomize it before the city is built the areas that need more traffic will be built around the more major roads. This is actually preferable to going with what roads are currently major. When you do road layout for a very small town (soon to be bigger) you should not assume that the current main street should remain the permanent main street and largest road. Call that old town main. Build a wider main street that is still business accessible, and then build a few other roads with space planned that they can be big enough to eventually not be business accessible. I just made your grid system actually handle traffic.

I like finding problems with videos: 1. You would need 2 traffic lines to indicate north from south and east from west which is more of a hassle to make and use. 2. Simply the logistics of changing every non grid into a grid, removing buildings as not all buildings will be small or big but in between changing it back to a non-grid or making grids too big 3. The tiers on the numberplate could be forged 4. The bad tier would slow down the regular and faster tiers making them always around slow drivers 5. The conveyers would cause major slippage at the entrance and exit as the car would be pulled apart and compressed 6. Grids would be slow intersection after slow intersection and you could use google maps if you don't know the way Some of the other features didn't seem too bad though

Are you saying that happy horn isnt a cool and smart idea sir?

[@fredrikwillumsen]

In my opinion Happy horn was the first great idea in the video Grid system makes a lot of traffic junctions which isn’t ideal for Driving around, and it causes a lot more traffic accidents compared to other systems I know America have used the Grid system a lot and and later gone away from it but that doesn’t change it being everywhere. In Europe the grid system isn’t that wildly spread because buildings was built and then the roads, but in America they built the roads and then the buildings. Personally i think the grid system looks satisfying, but it’s inconvenient for driving because you’ll be stuck in traffic a lot and more accidents honestly the street names isn’t something new. isn’t it already just random stuff? in addition to the normal street names like: 2nd, 1st, main, 3rd, park, 4th etc. The North, South, West, East dividers unfortunately won’t work if you drive on the other side of the road, because it would be upside down. and when driving on the South road you won’t even know if you’re driving south or north the happy horn is a nice addition:) and i have nothing against it the rankings would easily get corrupted and pay to win.

Here's some other stuff too. If you have kids, you have to have a sticker on the back of your car that says "I have kids" Purple ranks get stuff like: discounts on gas (50% off) and all shop items (10% off).

and this is why I love how barcelona streets are made. while there are a few exceptions (it would be impossible to make a perfect grid) it's a perfect grid with one or two long diagonals. it's far from being perfect but still, it's quite good. some of the improvements are a bit silly but in a good direction. the different licenses (brown, regular, silver gold/purple) should be visible on your car so other cars can know if you are a great driver or a menace that needs to be avoided. goes without saying that using a car that shows a different license should be illegal. showing where is north/south/west/east would be helpful to me. I'm one of those that never knows which direction I'm facing. and I'm all for having bike paths anywhere and everywhere. here we got a severe issue with them. in a lot of places they don't have their own path, can't use sidewalk because they can hurt people, can't use the road because they are too slow and cars could harm them badly. by the way, with a bit of clever street structure, it's almost possible to make a grid where there's no need for all that f*cking red light / green light. here is the thing. every time you reach a cross, you are required to turn. if you are on the left lane, you must turn left. if you are on the right lane, you must turn right. most of the time, this will make your travel longer but, since you won't need to stop at red lights, the time will usually be smaller. the only problem is how pedestrians would cross streets. but that can be solved using bridges or tunnels.

Where I’m from, streets go north south and avenues go east west. It makes navigation a lot easier. Also the streets and avenues are numbered and never have weird names. It doesn’t fix everything but it definitely helps

[@nicholasstanton9575]

Opposite way

[@nicholasstanton9575]

For nyc

[@aesign]

2:35 - So basically, the way the roads are build in Utah and Arizona and that. The LDS had it right.

[@MasqueradeGoblin]

Thanks i'll start using these today

[@SplatterShape]

You are right about everything

[@Lillla57]

Gonna keep this in mind for when I start driving. Truly a superior system

[@Matching_Socks]

Oh Oats, thank you so much for this valuable information. I’m sure everyone will begin to follow them, and they will make the world a safer place.

[@notchhill1578]

with the exemption of the obvious jokes (like the booster pads) these are honestly good ideas

[@audreyhogancamp1239]

This is a huge improvement from the traffic laws we have now... but me personally i think we should ditch cars altogether and get around with government supplied roller coasters.

[@johndoyle1588]

You should make it so everyone has to agree when construction is happening and where so it’s most convenient for everyone (except frowny face rank) or just get rid of construction entirely to speed up all traffic

[@maxmerriam3001]

You should make a video about fixing school systems-- like the basic rules at school. Maybe even change the grade levels?

[@hanstheexplorer]

Or maybe even grades themselves!

Let's break down each idea: Grid system: Implementing a grid system in urban road layouts can have advantages for traffic management. Grid systems can offer more straightforward navigation and predictable routes, potentially reducing congestion by providing multiple alternate paths to reach destinations. Happy horn: Introducing a friendly horn signal could be an interesting concept, as traditional car horns tend to be associated with frustration and impatience. A polite horn could encourage more considerate communication between drivers, leading to a more positive driving experience. Dotted lines indicating direction: This idea aims to enhance visual cues on the road. While it may help drivers in following lanes more precisely, it would require careful consideration to ensure it doesn't lead to confusion or distraction. Bike lanes on freeways: Incorporating dedicated bike lanes alongside freeways could promote sustainable transportation and reduce the number of cars on the road. However, this proposal would need to consider safety measures for cyclists sharing space with high-speed traffic. Overall, these ideas could be valuable starting points for discussions on improving traffic flow and safety. However, any significant changes to traffic infrastructure should undergo thorough analysis, simulations, and public consultations to assess potential benefits and drawbacks. Implementing such changes on a large scale would require the involvement of transportation experts, urban planners, and consideration of local context and needs.

[@QuirkSpecs]

I might be able to think of just a coupllllle issues with the NESW roads. All of your other new laws are objectively correct

[@Waitwha]

you could add fences or something to the biking freeways so the bikers don't accidently crash into a car

[@azischreiber613]

He did

[@jmurray1110]

I’m not sure fencing is the best option What I like is basically the bike lane has a seierate but if pavement on the other side that acts as a barrier Basically you extend the walkway but cut a decent sized part out about a meter off the road for bikes to use

[@compactcow]

@@jmurray1110 in chicago cars just drive on the bike path ☹️ this would 100% happen on freeway bike paths even if they were separated

[@jmurray1110]

@@compactcow not if the bike lane was too thin you don’t need as much space for bikes as cars since it’s a single person machine Plus to get into the Nike lane you would need to mount the kerb and that’s terrible for cars

[@Zordlistair]

If you are driving north, the north signs would work. But what if you're driving back south on the same road?

[@misshollis7547]

It will have South signs on the opposite side. also works for East and west.

[@PRGME7]

Basing my next dystopia off this. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@deez69nuts]

I know this video is ironic but the 4 driver rankings systems seem like a good idea
