One long single line, all moving at a constant speed, evenly spaced apart, no bickering, no 1 finger salutes, no road rage, and they never crash into each other!!!

It'll make you rich, if you can do it!
They have it. I saw an article about a test in California (I believe)... It was a few years ago... Never found out anymore about it though...

EDIT: UGH... Late to the party... what R.D. said.

The more I think about, there is a positive side: plenty of clients for the several hundred photographers in the Metroplex. LOL

What irks me is if there was ever an area growing fast enough to need a viable, mass transit system, it's DFW. Yet, the powers that be can't seem to get it done.

We (the electorate) just aren't making enough noise about it. Something like suffering in quiet desperation.

That is until some kid shows up, and wipes his finger through the chemical trail that they use to navigate by.

If you have never seen what happens when you do that, you should try it some time. They go from organized to absolute chaos in about 2.3 seconds!

Just migrated from Houston to DFW. You think DFW is a cluster **** go spend a month driving from West Houston into Downtown sometime. Not to mention the light rail there is ridiculous. I was amazed by how spread out the DART goes and how convenient it was.

Alas, more Auslanders coming to Texas and then wanting to make it just like where the left.

Just glad I got to see the real Texas before it was ruined.

Dallas used to be a nice town....
