Well Thats only good if you drive on freeways that have been recently upgraded within the past 5 years.

If you believe that, I've got tropical beachfront property with coconut palms and plumeria trees I'd like to sell you. It's up in Wisconsin.

and those freeways are, in the immortal words of someone who is no longer with us, yawn.

As in Bay Bridge, New Benicia Bridge North bound I -680, I-80 in Solano County has been repaved. I-80 Beltline is being repaved and I-305, US-50 and West Business 80 Sacramento in the planning stages.

My trip this last weekend back from Ventura on the Ventura and Golden State Freeways was literally teeth-jarring.  I muttered to my wife at on more than one occasion, "f*cking Department of Transportation."
