One of the heirs to the Freakonomics legacy. A very clever young writer tells us all sorts of things about what driving says about us. I kept waiting for the moment when my interest in congestion and roads would run its course. It never did. – источник2020-11-28T16:17:32.000Z
I completely agree. Non-drivers have a very poor understanding of complex systems and should be treated with suspicion. The book Traffic by @tomvanderbilt should be a set text in schools. – источник
