Traffic Flow

 Obey the rules of the road!

In Traffic Flow geometry a line must obey certain limitations on where it can travel. For example a popular subsection of this category is Taxicab Geometry, where lines can only travel on a grid only on the rows and columns that have integers. 

Well known shapes can transform into something interesting when forced to obey these rules.

Rules:

1. Lines must travel along the defined grid.

2. Lines may only make 90o turns.

3. There are multiple shortests paths between two points.
