Transportation—as any other human activity—is bounded to physical laws which manifest in the surroundings environment. The speed of a vehicle is limited to certain value depending on the medium through which it travels, friction effects, materials used in vehicle construction, type of engine, and fuels. The transportation sector with its roads, routes, railways, and vehicles reshapes continuously as driven by the actual needs of societies and as bounded by the current knowledge and the laws of thermodynamics.
