All they know is road queue theory which is just that, just a theory.<br /><br />If you attack the demand side, it has a far better effect than attacking the supply side when it comes to transportation systems. In other words, making it safer for bikes and pedestrians will likely mean more people using bikes and walking, therefore less cars. Sometimes traffic is a healthy thing in that way, I sure as heck don't like crossing a road with 55mph LOS A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
