Traffic expert blames politics for city congestion criticisms
William P Eno testified before Senate committees on traffic and warned that political rings hinder improvements. He urged more police, better lights and autonomous engineering control, with engineers chosen for authority and public safety. He cited Washington DC's 1914 regulations and 1922 committee failures as evidence of political influence undermining traffic reforms.
