High Tech Solutions for Traffic Management: Wireless Tracking and Unmanned Helicopters

The video discusses the use of wireless technology and unmanned helicopters to manage traffic. Sensors on vehicles and roads communicate to provide real-time traffic updates, helping to reduce congestion. If 10% of drivers choose alternate routes, traffic jams could decrease significantly. Unmanned helicopters equipped with cameras assist in monitoring traffic, allowing for quick responses. Californian authorities note that each minute of road blockage results in five minutes of traffic delay. At least ten American states are interested in these high-tech solutions to minimize delays.

What impact could a change in route by 10% of drivers have on traffic jams?
