I've determined I never need to fully grow up

Or at least some things won't have to change.

My reasoning: My mathematical homework, asigned by a man with a doctrate in mathematics and head of one of the departments here has assigned homework that is essentially "make these cars crash into each other".

Ok, so it is in the pretext of developing a model of traffic on a bridge/tunnel (in other words, no lane changes) with a certain amount of congestions. Specifically we are analyzing what happens when the first car on the road slows down. Messing around with the congestion level, speed reduction, and reaction time, we can model when the system becomes unstable. Unstable is a mathematical term for cars crashing into each other.
