kaistoittain

Kaistoittain is a Finnish word that translates to "lane by lane" or "in lanes." It is primarily used in the context of driving and traffic. When referring to roads, "kaistoittain" describes the movement of vehicles within their designated lanes. For example, a sentence like "Autot ajoivat kaistoittain" would mean "The cars drove lane by lane." This implies orderly travel within the established traffic lanes.

The term can also be used more figuratively to suggest a gradual or sequential progression of something, though its primary and most common meaning relates to physical lanes. For instance, if a construction project is being completed "kaistoittain," it means it's being done section by section or lane by lane, rather than all at once. This methodical approach ensures minimal disruption, particularly in areas with high traffic flow. Understanding "kaistoittain" is important for comprehending traffic regulations and descriptions of driving conditions in Finland. It emphasizes the concept of organized movement and phased development.
