Traffic shaping is to smooth out the output of an interface. Car is a
policer. One big difference is CAR can be applied as an input on an
interface (traffic shaping is outbound only). Also with CAR you can specify
what to do with excess traffic like change the IP Precedence value and
transmit the packet or just drop the packet.
