How About More FREE Lanes? Seems Like That Would Help More
-
The headline on this story is "More toll lanes seen as solution to nation’s freeway congestion," and as someone who lives in the heart of this Grand Experiment... no. See, we have toll lanes on some freeways -- I dutifully have my transponder and use the lanes when I have to go up to the Valley or downtown -- but they do NOT help traffic. Not at all. They tend to be empty and push traffic into the main (free) lanes, making traffic worse. But they -- the theorists and do-gooders -- are going to push this on you anyway.
