In the modern age, the world is a living, breathing organism. All around the planet, we move, transport, deliver and arrive using traffic. Cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, buses, motorcycles etc. pepper our city streets, move along the rural farm land roads and travel to work in early morning hours. With millions and millions of drivers heading out each day, data is not in short supply. Data is constantly being generated and collected on traffic, congestion, traffic tickets, commuting, police chases, traffic accidents and fatalities. This infographic from the talented data scientists at Experian Data Quality, details this data and truly puts the world of traffic into perspective.
