Kinesin motors are essential for intracellular organelle transport. While extensive studies have focused on understanding their collective motion, the reasons for the wide distribution of cargo speeds in cells remain poorly understood. In this study, we examine the relationship between motor numbers, cellular crowding, and cargo velocity during cargo transport in vitro. Our findings indicate...
