The equation says, \"At time\u003cem> t\u003c/em>, you accelerate at a rate proportional to the difference in speed between your car and the speed of the car you're following, but with a gap of \u003cem>T\u003c/em> seconds.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Put simply, if you're going faster than the car in front of you, then you slow down.

At the 10-second mark, the grey car slows down, and the cars that brake later have to slow down to subsequently lower minimum speeds. Each line shows the history of the speed of a different car. Drag the slider to graphically see a traffic wave unfold. Note how the cars at the bottom of the chart get closer together with time, as speeds even out.\u003cbr>\n\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"http://lewis500.github.io/waves/chart.html\" width=\"1000\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over time, congestion researchers have developed more complex models of traffic behavior that include realistic conditions and incorporate additional traffic data. For example, our \"simple\" equation assumes that the car in front of you will impact your behavior even if it's a mile away. Some of the first improvements to the equation added terms for the size of that gap and the understanding that cars can slow down much faster than they can speed up.

Soll of Duke University suggest \"there is a systematic misconception in judging fuel efficiency when it is expressed as miles per gallon.\" Namely, most drivers think gas usage falls linearly (in a straight line) as MPG increases. But the actual relationship between the two is curved: one additional MPG has significantly greater impact in the gas consumption of an inefficient vehicle than it does in a more efficient one. Essentially, it's the law of diminishing returns. The authors call this the \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.mpgillusion.com/\">MPG Illusion\u003c/a>,\" and note that encouraging gas guzzlers to upgrade to slightly more efficient vehicles actually has a much more positive impact than is commonly perceived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The environment would benefit most if all (car-driving) consumers chased highly efficient cars that get 40 MPG, not 14, and incentives should be tied to achieving such efficiency,\" the authors write. But, they argue, the impact of encouraging people who drive gas guzzling SUVs that get a measly 12 MPG to switch to ones that get a slightly less measly 14 MPG is certainly not negligible. \"The 2 MPG improvement is actually a significant one in terms of reduction in gas consumption.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That logic is illustrated here:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://lewis500.github.io/miles/linechart1.html\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"800\" height=\"540\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's true that 15 to 20 MPG is a bigger \u003cem>percentage\u003c/em> jump than going from 28 to 38 MPG, But even when comparing proportions, the same logic holds true.

Because it's a fraction with miles in the numerator and gallons in the denominator, it's a convenient measure for calculating answers in terms of miles.

In a 2008 \u003ca href=\"http://nsmn1.uh.edu/dgraur/niv/theMPGIllusion.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">study\u003c/a> published in Science Magazine, Richard P. Larrick and Jack B. Soll of Duke University suggest \"there is a systematic misconception in judging fuel efficiency when it is expressed as miles per gallon.\" Namely, most drivers think gas usage falls linearly (in a straight line) as MPG increases. But the actual relationship between the two is curved: one additional MPG has significantly greater impact in the gas consumption of an inefficient vehicle than it does in a more efficient one. Essentially, it's the law of diminishing returns. The authors call this the \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.mpgillusion.com/\">MPG Illusion\u003c/a>,\" and note that encouraging gas guzzlers to upgrade to slightly more efficient vehicles actually has a much more positive impact than is commonly perceived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The environment would benefit most if all (car-driving) consumers chased highly efficient cars that get 40 MPG, not 14, and incentives should be tied to achieving such efficiency,\" the authors write. But, they argue, the impact of encouraging people who drive gas guzzling SUVs that get a measly 12 MPG to switch to ones that get a slightly less measly 14 MPG is certainly not negligible. \"The 2 MPG improvement is actually a significant one in terms of reduction in gas consumption.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That logic is illustrated here:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://lewis500.github.io/miles/linechart1.html\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"800\" height=\"540\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's true that 15 to 20 MPG is a bigger \u003cem>percentage\u003c/em> jump than going from 28 to 38 MPG, But even when comparing proportions, the same logic holds true.

Because it's a fraction with miles in the numerator and gallons in the denominator, it's a convenient measure for calculating answers in terms of miles. For example: \"If my car has 5 gallons left in the tank, and it gets 30 miles per gallon, how many miles can I go without stopping for gas?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/lowdown/wp-content/uploads/sites/26/2013/12/form2a2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11060 alignnone\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/lowdown/wp-content/uploads/sites/26/2013/12/form2a2-300x82.jpg\" alt=\"form2a\" width=\"300\" height=\"82\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In most cases, however, it's more useful to express your calculations in terms of gallons, since it is gallons, after all -- not miles -- that matter to your budget and the environment (especially considering that burning 100 gallons \u003ca href=\"http://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.cfm?id=307&t=11\">emits one ton\u003c/a> of CO2).

The higher the fuel efficiency of your replacement vehicle, the more gas you save. That's why Larrick and Soll argue that \"removing the most inefficient vehicles is where policy and popular opinion should be focused.\" Ideally, all drivers of gas guzzlers would make a giant leap and swap their SUVs for very efficient small hybrids ... or bicycles. But that's a pretty unlikely possibility.

To show this, they gathered 2010 U.S. Census data on median household incomes and used the value from the specific census tract that each transit stop is located within.
