Dynamic Active Traffic Control


Recommended Posts

Suggestion Name: Dynamic Active Traffic Control
Suggestion Description: DATC is an admin controlled system that can adjust maximum speed limits in specific zones along busy routes such as Calais - Duisburg. This is achieved by raising (to a safe speed) or restricting the speeds before the more heavily congested areas allowing the built up traffic more time to clear out, reducing the length and frequency of long, major traffic jams that are not only dangerous but stressful for the server and the admins combined.

Any example images: Not at this Time

Why should it be added?: Having a system like this will allow congested areas to clear faster and maintain clearer traffic flow through these populated areas. 

 

Think of it as being in a a traffic jam and the traffic ahead starts moving so you start to move but maintain a more slower speed than the vehicle in front so that when they stop, you and those behind you are still moving forwards with less waiting time between moving and stopping.

 

The same principle applies here, just on a more controlled and larger scale. If traffic is at a standstill, restricting the speed of those approaching the area will have the same affect as crawling much slower than the vehicle in front of you. 

 

Furthermore, if it is then possible to make it lane specific, then any traffic leaving the area will not be affected when those entering are.
