Cars per hour (Function Value)

Function value	Attribute	Unit	Per category	Range	Description
Cars per hour	NUM_CARS	vehicles/h			How many cars move over any given cross-section of the road per hour, spread across all lanes.

This is only relevant for roads, intersections, and bridges. This affects the visualization, and is part of the traffic model, in turn affecting the calculations for the Traffic Overlays.

The value can either by a single value, or an Attribute array of values. As a single value, this reflects the amount of vehicles per hour at any point of the day. As an Attribute array, it's assumed to be an array of 24 values, each value corresponding to each hour of the day.
