Audi have a logo change:
That is from this Car+Driver story.
As opposed to this other Car+Driver story...
...which is about traffic.
And the effect that Coronavirus and the associated lockdowns are having on it.
For instance, average speeds in Los Angeles are 48 percent higher because there's so much less traffic on the roads while up in Seattle,
"on the key I-5 corridor, heading north-south into and out of downtown, traffic on March 18 was moving at speeds 100 percent faster than typical during the morning and afternoon commutes."
I've noticed a small but significant decrease in traffic on my commute. On the key M53 corridor, heading north-south into and out of Chester, traffic on March 24 was moving at speeds 1 percent faster than typical during the morning and afternoon commutes.
But that's a guess.
Which is nice.
The C+D piece also comments on air travel and subway travel. Apparently,
"New York City, which features the nation’s lowest incidence of car ownership and the current highest number of COVID-19 cases, has (as of March 12) seen subway, commuter train, and bus ridership decline massively, with double-digit drops."
The two things I take from that are:
- I feel sorry for New-Yorkers for two reasons in the first sentence.
- "Ridership" can't be a real word can it?
What do my readership think?
