    Huge thanks to CuriosityStream for supporting Vsauce2.
    We play two-player games all day, every day, and our lives are a real-time exercise in game theory. We work out how to make the best move based not only on what we want the outcome to be, but also based on how we think the other player is going to act. Since they’re usually going through the same rough thought process -- sometimes consciously, sometimes subconsciously -- we’re embroiled in a constant series of games with all of us wanting to win.
    Winning can be the best result for you or the best outcome given the circumstances, and players are implicitly sorting out their strategies in a recursive process that waffles between self-interest and cooperation. Whether we’re driving down the highway and trying to go as fast as we can without getting pulled over or just trying not to be weird with our crush, we’re playing a game… and it turns out that a little cooperation goes a long way.

      The answer to that questions is always,"I'm sorry, I was concentrating on where I was going and the traffic around me and I had not looked at me speedometer in miles." This statement does 2 things: it keeps you from incriminating yourself and informs the officer that although you may have been speeding you were not being reckless.
      Often an officer will ask that question if he doesn't have solid evidence of you speeding. If he says he is going to ticket you, request to see the radar receipt. The radar will print a time/date stamped receipt when he clocks you. If he can't produce it then he will either not ticket you or you can go to court and dispute it.

      Timothy Neiswander screenshot and saved to my phone. Not that I speed because I don't unless I'm not paying attention to my speed on a long stretch just watching the road but I typically can feel if I'm speeding because my foot will hurt. That may sound kinda odd but I typically drive at 58 miles per hour or 68 miles per hour depending on roads. My foot is so use to applying pressure for those two speeds and if I go over those speeds especially 68 I start to get a cramp. I don't know if it is from muscle memory or what. I usually drive 79 miles to work so it's kind of a haul but my foot is very steady and I can usually tell pretty quickly if I speeding and slow down but I rarely do speed so I think it really is muscle memory for me. Long rant but I've noticed this for years but your screen shot might help me if I do get stopped. Good tip and sounds logical.

      anonymous Crabz say you’re going 60 on the highway, which is the speed limit. If everyone around you is going 80+, then you’re the hazard, since you’re essentially the same as a guy standing still in a 20 zone.
      Source: my grandpa once got pulled over for going the speed limit.
      Note: I live in Texas. Laws may vary between states, countries, and even cities. It also might have been the discretion of the officer who pulled him over, not the general rule.

    I feel it’s actually risky to go exactly the speed limit when a cop is around. The cops thinking “hmmm is something up with that car? Why’s he driving exactly the speed limit, i wonder why he really really doesn’t want to get pulled over?” But if you go a few mph over the posted speed limit when a cop is around that makes the cop think “ That guy doesn’t seem to be too worried about going a little over even when I’m right behind him so he probably doesn’t have anything to hide or be worried about”

    Something I'd add about the nash equilibrium in the prisoner's dilemma situation is that if you tally up total scores in each outcome, both keeping quiet ends up as -2. Both talking ends up at -4. One talking and the other keeping quiet ends at -3. I mean group total. The rational actor in this situation will think as an individual and seek the 0, because it's the most positive result for all of this, on an individual scale, but this means both will likely do this, and lead to a collective -4. Team players generate the highest score on a group level, loners generate the lowest and shittiest score on a group level. Realistically speaking, nash equilibrium would always happen and you'd never see one side get 0 and the other -3.

    Something that was left out that i think is important is why people are nice to each other: in the cold world of game theory, there is the notion of "repeated games"-both players will behave "nicer" if they must face each other again. Intuitively, this makes sense: if one prisoner betrays the other, than in successive rounds of the prisoners dilemma they will betray each other over and over. However, if the prisoners must face each other again, then they will cooperate infinitely.

      That was answered briefly in the video at 7:30. The general consensus, at least in the US, is about 5 mph over the limit. However, 55 mph usually means it's a construction zone (70 mph is more common for a highway / interstate, at least where I am). If it were a construction zone instead of the regular speed limit, I'd drive exactly what the sign says and no more because 1) it's more dangerous to speed there, 2) fines are doubled, 3) more likely to be watched than a random spot of road 4) the police's lower tolerance for anyone who is speeding.

    If your tyre is correct pressure then there's the most contact. That said when it's underinflated there's actually a pocket that forms in the middle due to the sidewall being pushed towards the center and creating an arch thus reducing surface contact area.
    If it's wet you'll probably have less grip if you're underinflated rather than overinflated. You may have better grip if you're over inflated than regular when it's wet.

    TIL:
    Recursion is a pattern of incremental change that repeats until it reaches a base-case. In this video, the base case is getting pulled over. The change is usually one directional, so, for example, the non-cop-driver starts at 60, and doesn't get pulled over, the next round the driver goes 61, then 62, etc, etc. Eventually, this pattern stops when the driver is pulled over. That is recursion. Recursion usually doesn't go to infinity because it reaches
    Game theory is also a repeating pattern of incremental change, but it can go in more than one direction. The base case is when change = 0. An example I heard of was two vendors selling goods at the beach, and the change they make is where to set up shop. If both vendors are equally spaced out on the beach they might get equal shares in the business, but if one decides to move toward the center, it will be more convenient for customers to go there and less to the other making the one who moved get a larger share of the business. The vendor getting less business will likely respond by moving closer to the center until he receives most of the business, then back to the first one who moved, he'll move again until he gets most of the business ... this pattern repeats until both vendors are right next to each other in the middle. This is an explanation used for why so many gas stations are right next to each other.
    So in the example in the video, game-theory is being applied in a different way where one party incrementally controls their speed, but the other party (the police) incrementally adjusts their threshold for how fast they are willing to let a civilian drive before pulling them over. This pattern repeats forever until a driver gets pulled over. But it results in a sort of mid-point (called the Nash-equilibrium) of how fast one can drive without getting pulled over resulting in an actual speed limit that is somewhat faster than the road-signs.
    Interesting enough, this game is not played by two parties, but by all drivers and all police within a given area. Thus the equilibrium ends of being determined by how fast most people drive in an area thus if you were driving in an area where EVERYONE except for you goes the speed limit, then you might get pulled over for going 1 mile over. However, if you are in an area where everyone goes 20 mph over the speed limit, then you going 19 miles over the speed limit greatly reduces the odds of you getting pulled over while allowing you to still speed.

      CuckTube we use rubber because it has a higher friction coefficient. Doesn’t really matter the surface, it’s all about weight and acceleration.

      @@SuperSerNiko97 more surface area mean more traction thats why you dont over inflate your tires so theyre at the optimal point of havin just the right amount of traction too little and theres too much surface area or a contact patch meaning more friction and the vehicle wont be efficient and wont preform perform optimally because the friction will slow it down too much air and the tires will be too firm and have too little of a contact patch meaning less friction and you will lose traction and slide around

    • @SuperSerNiko97
      @SuperSerNiko97 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      GrapeDrank001 that’s absolutely wrong, bicycles and motorcycle have much less contact area than cars or trucks but handle the same lateral force, explain why!
      The friction law of physics only depend on weight and material, the surface area cancels out.
      Sport cars have wider tires for many other engineering reasons, for example: a wider tire have less deflection so the car is more stable; a wider tire touches the ground more transversally than longitudinally, so the tire touches the ground for less time (and when they do the pressure on the ground is softer) but touches the air for more time, this means a more colder tire; and last but not least a wider tire, due to the less pressure on the ground, last longer.
      Put all those things together and you’ll find out that you can use a much softer tire without all the trouble you would have on a narrow one.
      Talking about what you said, you have to inflate it at the right point not because of any crucial change in the traction but because you use all the tread homogeneously without wasting it.

    Use one of these tracks and make it super long and then see how long it takes to get one of the cars super fast and how long it will take to slow down by itself and using objects to stop it

    There’s another variable not accounted for: How fast MUST you go before you CAN be pulled over? Many jurisdictions, often times entire states have laws in place that set hard limits on when someone can be cited for speeding. Many states require the offender to be exceeding the speed limit by a certain amount before they can be cited (for example greater than 10mph over). Further, different speed measuring devices can have these limits set differently (LIDAR, RADAR, Pacing, aerial etc). This is further compounded by the fact that different laws may apply to different agencies that work in the same jurisdiction. For example State patrol may be able to cite you for 56 in a 55 but a PD may not be legally able to cite you on the same road until you are going 70.
