严重事故每年让奥克兰损失1.95亿美元，较低的车速减少了延误并提升了生产力。 Serious crashes cost Auckland $195M yearly, with slower speeds reducing delays and boosting productivity.

一项新的研究发现,与撞车有关的延误费用每年为1.95亿奥克兰,一次严重撞车造成26 000至37 000美元的时间损失,多车辆高速公路撞车费用为140万至350万美元。 A new study finds crash-related delays cost Auckland $195 million annually, with single serious crashes causing $26,000–$37,000 in lost time and multi-vehicle motorway crashes costing $1.4–$3.5 million. 使用全球定位系统和交通数据进行的分析表明,碰撞频率和严重程度增加的速度较高,导致清除时间更长,拥挤程度加大。 The analysis, using GPS and traffic data, shows higher speeds increase crash frequency and severity, leading to longer clearance times and greater congestion. 尽管声称加快速度能提高生产力,但有证据表明,通过尽量减少延误和干扰,降低速度会减少死亡人数并改善经济结果。 Despite claims that faster speeds boost productivity, evidence indicates lower speeds reduce fatalities and improve economic outcomes by minimizing delays and disruptions. 调查结果表明,更安全、更可靠的旅行比更高的速度限制生产率更高。 The findings suggest safer, more reliable travel yields greater productivity than higher speed limits.
