I don’t know...after spending five hours in traffic going up 95 on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, this does not seem so bad. I know this sounds sarcastic, but damn that was an awful trip.

The next time you take that trip it will be much worse because the expresslanes are being taken from HOV service (which normally moves more than half the traffic at rush hour) and converted to a very high priced tollroad.

I can't imagine what went through the minds of the fellows who've looked at the traffic flow data in the I95 corridor. If your HOV lanes handle more than half the traffic, then you sure don't want to make them more difficult to use than they are now. At the same time if the traffic is not flowing at all in the regular lanes, then you certainly don't want to add all that HOV traffic to the regular lanes.

I see violence resulting from the proposed changes, and not the pretty kind of violence.
