Phantom Traffic Jams

Traffic can suddenly come to a halt for no apparent reason, known as a phantom traffic jam, caused by small changes in driving behavior that create ripples among vehicles. Interestingly, introducing just 2% self-driving cars could significantly alleviate this issue by optimizing traffic flow. Additionally, the exploration of sin through a scientific lens reveals why people engage in behaviors they know are detrimental, prompting a deeper understanding of human nature.
