RESEARCH INTO QUEUE-PROBLEMS
ONDERZOEK FILEPROBLEMEN
In the Netherlands the queue problem is generally considered as a social problem. Not alone by the direct involved people, those people driving a car by themselves, but also by non-automobile drivers. The importance of the problem can be determined from the big number of people involved. From the 5870000 car drivers 415000 are in a queue one or more times each day. 900000 car drivers are in a queue at least once in a week. Of the whole Dutch population 70% find the problem very or rather important. A majority of the Dutch thinks that asking for an extra contribution for the queue problem is not reasonable (61%). For the selection of road pricing most persons (46%) prefer an increase of excise duties, 29% prefer toll payments, and 18% prefer an increase on road-tax. Automatic registration for payment is acceptable by 58%.
