    No it is not similar to internet traffic. Roads can process a maximum number of vehicles per hour before they congest. If you reduce the speed the max of a road it takes longer for congestion to occur.

    It is not as if this is a new insight, and you might want to drive fast because that is your god given freedom or something… but in terms of getting from A to B max speed < average speed

      It’s similar. You get more when things go faster.
