fuel economy

We could fire all the city mayors and city managers,and all the civil engineers,and construction permit authorities,close down the chamber of commerce,then demolish all 'corner' businesses,allowing for cloverleafs at intersections.Abolish left turns.Synchronize every traffic light.
In other words,put grade school children in charge of traffic engineering.
We'd have 100% through-put,there'd be no yields,stops,or idling.Cars would exceed their EPA rated HWY mpg in the city.
We'd probably have 54.5 mpg without changing the cars at all.And we'd have the most lowest entropy transportation infrastructure forever into the future.
