Earlier studies reported two phases with broken symmetry; the existence of one of these has been the subject of some debate. We show that the disputed phase disappears for sufficiently large systems and/or sufficiently low bulk mobility.8 pages, 3 figures, JPA styleStatistical MechanicsPhysics and SocietySpurious phase in a model for traffic on a bridgetext
