A throttle is a control that regulates how much power an engine produces. In a car, motorcycle, boat, or airplane, the throttle controls the flow of air and fuel into the engine. Opening it makes the engine work harder and move faster. It is usually connected to the accelerator pedal.
Throttle also means to limit, reduce, or slow something.
In many cars, the throttle is connected to the accelerator pedal. When the pedal is pressed, the throttle opens wider, allowing more air into the engine. The word comes from an old English word meaning to choke or restrict, because a throttle partly blocks the flow of air.

Traffic on land can be made up of people on foot, vehicles or even animals. Traffic usually travels along public roads. Different countries and different states within countries have different rules on how traffic should behave on public roads, such as which side of the road to drive on, how fast to travel, and what type of vehicles are allowed on different roads.
