    Speaking in my capacity as an occasional player of Cities Skylines, my only big question is what are they going to do about emergency service vehicles?

    Fire trucks, ambulance, pigmobile, etc?

      Well the obvious solution to the traffic problem it will create is to ban left turns and only use merges. When a firetruck leaves a fire, they can just head down to the next fire station, whose firetruck can head to the next one, and so on.

      The beauty of this solution is that it can be applied to all traffic, like in the SimCity reboot. You go out to get groceries? Don't turn left, just keep going down until you reach the next unoccupied house. You wake up in the morning, turn right, and just drive until you see the first place hiring, quit at the end of the day and find a new home. Bus brings your kids to the first school on the right in the morning, and in the evening, a different bus comes and brings a new set of children.

          It's probably not worth it, I just vaguely remember that people didn't have dedicated work or homes, they'd just go to the nearest unoccupied one, often in a giant crowd on foot.
