The next time you all bottleneckend on the highway ahead of creeps, with a virgin blank, but afgekruisde lane next to you, then you should consultancy firm Grontmij to thank.
To measure is to know, and so rents the government practically continuous consultancies in costly experiments to do after all. So also in terms of the infrastructure. At the request of Rijkswaterstaat and the ministry of infrastructure and the environment and does consultancy firm Grontmij – completely against the trend, the recommendation to rush-hour lanes as much as possible, to close when it is quiet on the road. The reason: we build a lot more accidents with this open area in the rush hour lane, it is up to four times less safe on the road.
Thus we come immediately to an uncomfortable conclusion: not rapportjesschrijver Grontmij deserves in them to flare to be, better we put our hand in his bosom. The (Dutch) driver is incapabeler than the sky devils Circus Baf: he can’t, and it is also nothing. Zippers? The principle could not be simpler, but the implementation is a disaster. Decent insert on the highway? No way, Jose. A rush hour lane? ‘OMG, I row across a continuous line I’m GOING to die!! Tell my wife that I love her’. You get the picture hopefully.
As soon as there is left a strip of tag (such as on the A1 in the east of the country), there is no problem, so when it can, we will attach a narrow strip to the left there. The A28 near Zwolle, for example, has a third lane on the left, which is nice and tight. Anyone who does not feel this drive to remains of road, and people with a hard hand, which, however, widths can estimate can here at least a little bit to drive. That is, until there is again such a muppet to the left, move up, and then acute paralysis develops, and not more along the person to the right of him dare to drive. An annoyance that anyone who has ever by German road works has driven can subscribe to.
Unfortunately, we have on most of the highways, this possibility does not, however, and so the only possibility for capacity to increase the opening of the hard shoulder. This also produces a lot of extra pocket money on also.
Less pressure, of gas on it
The researchers do make a number of assumptions that we are not a 1 to 1 dare to take over. So would drivers far too hard riding on less busy times, which leads to more accidents caused by speed differences. I actually thought that the flitsgestapo the Netherlands meanwhile, in a permanent nekklem; if you have the gas to deep-horn bleeds here usually immediately, including 6 7 to 9 euros “administration costs”.
For people with bermvrees or anyone who is too stupid to understand that guidance from a continuous to an interrupted line, the rush hour lane is indeed a crime, but we advise these people to enjoy the onrendabelenvervoer to address, until we have autonomous cars that our problems will resolve. By that time, we laugh at these old discussions.
