Anyway, jokes aside, this has a lot more uses than proof we are all bad drivers. I can this being a great simple way to show queues in a factory/shop/office coffee machine . Awesome work and i wish i as 5% as good at coding to be able to do this when on holiday. On my hols i would be lucky to get past hello world. Kudos to this guy.
Those cars are using indicators, this is clearly not based in California.
Set the driver reaction time to 500ms, with 90 cars launched a minute, and you'll see what my daily commute is like.

It'd be interesting to implement lane discipline and see how one bad driver effects the rest.
Some bugs (cars not always breaking when another is standing still ahead; cars crashing at the beginning if you hit launch too quickly), but overall a fun toy to play with. I would like to know what realistic values are though: I know that 200ms reaction time is a good case, but what are actual average cases? It should be set to that by default. Or acceleration speed, is 5km/h realistic? 10? When set to 5, I cannot s…
I think the braking is a feature not a bug. See the "reaction time" I'd assume that means that some just aren't reacting in time to not hit the car ahead.

If driving causes cancer, at least the people who drive in the passing lane (the left one) deserve it.

A basic Honda Civic will be around 9 or 10 seconds, which is roughly 10 km/h/s.
5 km/h/s would feel pretty sluggish.
