Though I was born in DC, I've only been through there (downtown) once as an adult.
Middle of the night. Got lost driving cross-town and stopped and asked a cabbie for directions to Arlington.
He said, "Follow me" !!!
Took me right to the bridge.
I was astonished... just try that in Boston ;-)

there should be a law passed that anytime a new traffic signal is installed within say 1000 feet of an existing signal, that the new signal MUST be synchronized to the existing signal... even a simple system like the both go green/red together will prevent you from having to stop at both of them...

I forgot to add...if you want to save oil, I can't think of a better way...
our wonderfull govt officials have no problem making us pay to have our vehicles inspected every year....why not put some requirments on the road infrastructure as well...my car gets great mileage when I don't have to stop and start every minute...

But did you pay any attention to the distinctions on how well it worked and the boundaries where was marginal at best? Check what happened in Los Angeles when they went high rise with office space only.

Traffic circles work well in certain limited circumstances. They do not work worth a damn for 4 lane highways though. That is why you do not see tham for two intersecting 4 lane highways. (4 lanes is 2 lanes in each direction)

They seem to work well enough here in the UK.

Not in Boston or SanFransisco they don't. In Boston it sometimes takes 5. In San Fransisco, all the streets are one way in the other direction.

Check out the number of votes cast in the house republican's election of a new leader. So lets see if Rich can come up with one example.

if the lights turn green and red together (i.e. at the same time) , then it will work in both directions, you will never get stopped by 2 adjacent lights in a row...

Make gas $10/gal. I am sure traffic will really drop.

Naaah! Just ship all the leftist weenies to Antarctica to watch the ice melt ;-)
