abstract="<p><br/>The frequency of occurrence of acts representing degrees of satisfaction of the purpose of a traffic regulation requiring motorists to keep in line were plotted against the telic continuum. The curve representing the behavior of the 12,666 motorists observed was a steep J-curve, with 83.3% of the cases at the mode. 4.9% more motorists showed complete conformity to the regulation when a traffic officer was present than when no officer was present. Chauffeurs exhibited most conformity and least nonconformity, taxi drivers least conformity and most nonconformity, while drivers of private automobiles were intermediate in both respects.
