为什么值得读
- 阐明加宽车道反而无法缓解拥堵的诱导需求悖论
- 解析微小干扰引发大堵车等交通流反直觉机制
- 对比各国工程人员在道路安全设计上的差异理念
《New York Times》Notable Book，《The Washington Post》、The Cleveland Plain-Dealer、《Rocky Mountain News》年度最佳图书之一。在这项精辟、生动且令人大开眼界的调查中，Tom Vanderbilt 探讨了导致我们的驾驶表现比自以为的更差的知觉局限与认知基础。他论证了为什么保护行人免受汽车伤害的规划往往会导致更多事故；揭示了谁更有可能对谁鸣笛以及原因；解释了交通拥堵如何形成，勾勒了我们追求安全时所带来的意外后果，甚至指出了最常见的错

……闯红灯/停车标志，就算没出事你也会被罚款。如果你在停车标志前停下了，然后某个没停的人迷迷糊糊撞了上来，你不会承担任何责任（但另一个人就惨了）。汤姆·范德比尔特的《交通》是一本很有意思的书，讲了一些关于交通运作的反直觉现象，以及不同国家的工程师在应对安全问题时的思路差异有多大。强烈推荐……
…run a stop sign, you'll get fined even if nothing happens. If you stop at a stop sign and then in blissful ignorance ram someone who didn't, no harm comes to you (unlike to the other person). The book "Traffic" by Tom Vanderbilt is an interesting read about some counterintuitive things about how traffic works and about how differently engineers in different countries approach safety. I can highly recommend…
据说修建更多道路并不能缓解交通拥堵，只会诱发更多需求（而这种需求又会被严重的拥堵所抑制）。来源（如果你对这个话题感兴趣的话，很值得一读）：https://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/0307...
Supposedly more road construction doesn’t alleviate traffic, in only induces more demand (which is moderated by high traffic levels) Source (great read if your interested in the subject): https://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/0307...
我手头没有可以引用的研究链接，但我亲眼见过一辆开得很慢的警车是怎么在身后造成瓶颈堵塞的，因为根本没人敢超他的车。附几个关于貌似微不足道的因素如何引发交通堵塞的链接：http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-driving-safety/accidents-h... http://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/03072...
I don't have a study to link to but I'm seen how one slow driving cop can cause a bottle neck behind him as noone wants to pass him some links about about how seemingly minor factors can cause traffic jams http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-driving-safety/accidents-h... http://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/03072...
所以，你之前参与开发的是哪款交通模拟器？我一直对交通和交通建模很着迷，读过相关书籍 [1]，也看过利用元胞自动机、心理学、离散事件等技术的文章。[1] https://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/0307...
So, which was the traffic simulator you worked on? I've always been fascinated by traffic and traffic modelling, read books [1], seen articles where they use cellular automata, psychology, discrete events, etc etc. [1] https://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/0307...
这太有意思了。《交通》这本书 [1] 里大篇幅探讨了为什么增加道路通行能力（比如加宽车道）最终可能对缓解拥堵毫无作用，因为更多人会因此选择开车出行。但这种悖论似乎把交通……
This is fascinating. The book Traffic [1] talks a great deal about how adding road capacity (e.g. more lanes) can result in zero change in congestion because more people choose to take more trips. But this paradox appears to hold traffic…
如果你觉得这篇文章有意思，我强烈推荐作者的书《Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do》[1]。这篇文章大部分内容差不多就是其中一章的节选，但整本书探讨的方向要丰富得多。[1]: http://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/03072...
If you found this article interesting, I heartily recommend the author's book 'Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do' [1]. Most of this article is pretty much an excerpt of one chapter, but the book goes in a lot of directions. [1]: http://www.amazon.com/Traffic-Drive-What-Says-About/dp/03072...
