Abstract

Verkehr einzusparen war immer schon ein Grund für die Entwicklung und Anwendung von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien. Aber warum nehmen Verkehr und Staus beim gegenwärtigen Ausbau dieser ständig verbesserten Technologien weiter zu? Zwölf Gründe für dieses paradoxe Ergebnis werden hier vorgestellt - und vier Gründe, warum eine gewisse Substitution erwartet werden kann.
