Summary/Abstract: Lills law, published 1889 includes implicitly the so-called "time constancy" for mobility which was found in many empirical studies during the last decades, worldwide. It can be shown that Lills law can be derived from a more basic human behaviour law, discovered by Weber and Fechner in the 19th century. The knowledge of this law helps us to a better understanding of the mechanisms of modern transport systems and to find solutions which are more cause-related.
