Among other things, yes. After all, what good is data without testing? So, we'd test our results after the fact - sometimes years after the fact we'd go back in and set up the pneumatic hoses and test again. (That was a primary testing tool back then. Today, they use cameras and AI to recognize the cars, it's much more refined.)
I've told you before. I liked to fuck with the pneumatic hoses when I found them, and if there was one near a busy intersection that I wanted traffic control lights at for my own personal benefit, I would spend hours going in circles on that street to inflate the traffic numbers LoL
Yeah, we can tell when you do that. It stands out like a sore thumb and we just normalize the data.
Well, if they're set up properly we can tell. It should be a whole network of them, not just one or two like some municipalities do/did.
Also, all those cheap guitars have gone up $50 to $150 in the past 60 days or so.
I must have something to do with the cost of shipping going up with the rise in fuel costs
The hosed counters I fucked with were just set up by the county and they had two of them in each direction from an intersection they were counting traffic at so my circles would include both of the hoses.
The counters were just mechanical counting devices, so there was no way they could tell what time the numbers came in, I guess depending on how often they gathered the data, but I imagine it was only weekly or maybe less. Even daily tallies would not reveal my thousand laps at 3AM
