But Oral, we HAVE to think out of the box....Knowing we have different types of large vehicles, plenty of road system if we could accomplish our goals using both small and large vehicles....the question becomes: How can we make those two compatible, using our current road system, AND still keeping the large vehicles for long distance travel, trucks as we need them, but also small vehicles to go about our daily business.

With the major traffic jams in major cities nearly all the time now, it seems to me that going the errands in a small vehicle like a golf cart, could be done in the same amount of time by NOT having to sit in a traffic jam.

I sat in traffic going north yesterday on a trip that should take 45-50 minutes. Instead, I was on the road from 1:10 until 2:45.

Coming home, same time...should have taken 45-50 minutes. I was on the road from 4:30 and home at 5:55.

One thing is for sure~~~ If WE can't figure out how this could work, how in the heck can we expect the public officials to see their way to see how it would work....Most of them are so myopic they don't see anything much farther than the nearest trough they can go sit by....

So engineers, how can we get this to work?
