We cant travel if the rate of increase in traffic continues


Traffic has only increased at the same rate as the number of driving

license
holders has increased - due largely to women getting their own cars more
these days.

Once the number of license holders flattens out (which it will in due
course), traffic should stop increasing so fast. If we built a decent road
network now, it might be able to serve us forever.



Are we really going to be able to limit licences? I cant see thsi unless we
have to start paying for them. I am sure the human rights brigade would have
plenty to say about allowing Eddie to have a licence but not George
