OK that was a bit of a joke... but the bottom line is that few motorists really study traffic and sensors or even the law the way that some of us cyclists do.

I often study the traffic patterns of different routes to see what works out best, and what is safest. Later I may share the results of my study with my wife by telling her to go such an such a way to avoid lights or other inconvenient situations when she is driving. She will look at me as if I am crazy, but eventually tries the suggested route only to find that hey.... her engineer hubby might be on to something.

But most motorists... they just rely on the application of "more power" as a solution.
