Social media and traffic

Social media and traffic

We all know that remote work would be an effective way to decrease pollution. But if we are driving cars, we should point our focus to driving. And in the past, the driving schools were mentioned that even the channel of the radio should not change while driving. Maybe that thing tells something about the safe driving what is the primary objective while driving vehicles on the road.

When the driver, who uses social media closes the road is a new element for the traffic. And the thing is that this new threat to safety is an effect of new kinds of technology with attitudes to traffic and driving. Things like GPS navigators and mobile telephones are causing the addiction to see news and social media in traffic lights, which is one of the things, that people should talk about driving schools.

When people are looking at the screen driver's eyes will turn off the driving direction. And that increases the possibility of the accident. The new technology with automatic gear is causing that the car is easy to handle in one hand, which means that the mobile telephone would take off the pocket in traffic lights, and that causes problems.

But how we could solve that kind of question? One version is starting to sell things like cameras, what is observing the position of the eye, and allows people to use the user interface of the mobile device by the smart glasses or straight from the windscreen.

The system detects the point of the macula or certain point of the blood vessels of the eye, and that would allow a person to use the user interface by targeting the cross on the icon. Then that icon is marked by blinking the eye. This thing operates by smart glasses or HUD-screen, and a similar system is used by Stephen Hawking, while he sat in a wheelchair for communicating and controlling that thing.

But as we know things like cars and traffic are serious, because the safety of traffic is always a problematic thing. People are hoped to turn to use public transportation because the space in the city area is ending, and the traffic causes very much carbon dioxide emissions. The thing is that the city area is planned for private cars is gone forever.

When the modern city model was created the idea was that driving in that area was very easy. And it could still be that, but the thing that was forgotten is that the number of cars increased. And the parking areas turned out to be too small for the bigger cars. Also, the number of parking lots were turned to be too small for the increasing number of cars.

That thing caused that public transportation has turned out to be the primary tool for traffic solutions. The modern solution is that mass transportation systems are supporting each other. The system looks like a tree. Local transportation moves people to one place to another in a close distance, but it also delivers passengers to long-distance vehicles.

This kind of solution is an effective and fast way to travel. And that is hoped to save space for vehicles, which are necessarily moving in city areas. Those vehicles are cars, which are owned by people, who are living in the downtown. The problem is always that the usage of public transportation is varying. In the rush hour, the trains and buses are full, and in the middle of the day, those vehicles are traveling empty. And that thing causes problems in transportation.
