CA should build high speed rail instead of pushing the problem to the automakers.
Instead of expanding rail system, maybe building BART down to Silicon Valley, they are building more carpool lanes for hippies to cruise on in their hybrids. So we get very low utilization carpool lanes sucking in transportation money that could have been used to say build a train system so one can hop on it and go down to LA or San Diego or Disneyland, maybe a branch to Vegas, or whatever instead of driving. How awesome would that be? Get on a high speed train in SF, and in 2 hours, you are in Los Angeles.
