According to article about solution to solve the traffic congestion by Mr. Shladover. The traffic congestion can be solved with one system which integrated with wireless connection form each vehicle. The result of this system can give suggestion for route to prevent a crowded area, then every road can be more optimal. Calculation of best route from this system will be shown at application in each vehicle as assistant driver. Perhaps it is a great plan for future but for some years again this solution waste if will be applied. It will need long time and much fund to upgrade every vehicle to have this application. In the real life, we just can found little vehicle which have applied application as assistant driver. So, if just some vehicle which applied with this system, it can,t be work optimum. Technology has made our live easier, better and faster than before. As like Melanie’s quote, technology utilization on any sector offer huge improvement in our live (Melanie.2018). The development technology in this era can be utilized as a solution of traffic congestion based on
Shladover quote at his article published by CNN. Combination of two technology aspect, wireless connectivity and automation give some opportunities for solve this problem. Aside transportation, technology have been applied to any sector in life and give more advantage than before. The way to solve the traffic jam with technology application is a great idea to improve transportation in one area. If every vehicle on road capable use application to connect each others , it will make a one integrated automation system which can improve efficiency of highway lines. This system will analyse traffic on one area, then information of ideal route for each vehicle will be showed on vehicle application.

Application on each vehicle can anticipate traffic jam, show disturbances on the road and give suggestion the best route to driver so the vehicle can be safely driven than without this application. Connection automation transportation technology can improve commute travel conduction, improve cost-effectiveness and quality of public transportation. With the Shladover way, transportation system will be more integrated and each vehicle can eliminate annoyance on the road so traffic can be more effective and safely.
Great benefit of Shladover way to solve traffic congestion still has weakness which make this system still can’t applied in a large area, like a country. This automation system has one requirement, that is every vehicle use the application which connect on a integrated traffic system. Then, almost vehicle still didn’t has this application, especially in Indonesia. This system will work well if all the vehicle have this application, if not it will make the driver with automation system still have to adjust with non automation vehicle.
Beside that, the calculation of central system can’t effective one hundred percent because still many vehicle which not include in radar at integrated system. The obstacle to apply Shladover way to combat traffic jam is upgrade all vehicle with the application which connected each vehicle and connected with central system. Upgrade of each vehicle need long time and much budget for it. Not just one vehicle , but all vehicle in area which want to be applied. So, it will need a large budget to make this integrated system . This idea of automation is great plan to solve this problem for long time. For closed time, it still can’t work because still little vehicle which has the application of this system.
But, government can be apply this program step by step with upgrade every vehicle in one area. From the explanation above, we can conclude if Shladover way to combat traffic jam is not absolutely efficient for right now. It has been require long time to apply in real life. Not just time, this program also needs budget for upgrade every car on the area of program activation. With this way, transportation will more work well and can improve every road at the city to connect each destination. The road which rarely used by people will be shown as a good route by application to prevent crowded place.
So, with this program can decrease level of the traffic congestion. But, it still can,t be applied for tight now. Moreover, government should start to apply this automation program step by step like upgrade every new vehicle with this application. With the little move from the government rule, this automation program will be held not for long time again. Aside that, they have to offer other solution to solve the traffic jam, like odd even number vehicle or one way system on the road. Then, government must remember to always improve the facility on the road, not just about online network to set the traffic. The other best solution than the shladover way is make a public transport as primary transportation in the city (Buchanan, Mark. 2019). Public transportation is effective solution to decrease a volume of vehicle in the street which being factor of traffic jam happens.
