Incentives for drivers meet a number of barriers, mainly their inherent injustice due to external factors such as weather or traffic situation. This could also lead to legal problems. Due to these barriers, incentives (especially monetary ones) are difficult to realize. Nevertheless, the concept is attractive and efforts should be put into an elimination of legal or acceptance obstacles. |
