La soluzione al #traffico era già nota nel 1927

In un manifesto dell'azienda di trasporto di Wichita Falls, si chiede di dare priorità al trasporto di massa, perché molto più efficiente: in un #tram possono sedersi comodamente le persone portate da ben 28 #auto (con 2 persone per auto, stima ottimistica).

It's country of the freedom, so it's weird.
My interpretation: 1 3/5 = 1.6

I'd advise against using the phrase '3/5ths of a person', but I guess you can always count on Americans (and Texans in particular) to make stupid decisions.

Going by that interpretation, 1 + 3/5, all the cars are Driving Miss Daisy.

That is obviously a bad comparison, because there's no way that old hag would ever set foot on a tram.
