Reply to comment by Funkybeatzzz in Why do we keep on increasing the number of roads even though statistically more roads create even more traffic? by [deleted]

I was implying the study was the same as claiming the earth was flat. Making the analogy that roads create traffic is backwards logic. The 500k population increase is why there’s MORE everything!! Happy New Year!

It might be backwards logic to you but it’s what the actual data analysis shows. Just because it doesn’t make sense to you doesn’t mean you can just dismiss it.

And this is why the US is a joke to the rest of the world.

Science: “Here’s some data and analyses!”
