Part two of today’s L.A. Times letters to the editor, because our voices matter:
Re “Free way’s the slow way,” April 10
Thank you for reporting on the “surprising” result of converting the 110 carpool lanes into toll lanes. Traffic has slowed in the remaining, already congested, lanes. Well, duh.
It is not clear why this is surprising. When the government in effect privatized a key portion of our overall public transportation system (the roads we want) for the benefit of the relative few, did someone actually predict that the majority of us would benefit?
