Hi Daryl!

 BM>toll collection was stopped (!) when the bridge was paid off.
 DS>   This 62 year old male had rigged up a skeleton, and disguised
 DS> it with military fatigues. The skeleton was permanently set in
 DS> the passenger side, to make it look like there was a second
 DS> passenger in the vehicle, where he could go into the HOV lane,
 DS> and pay a lower toll. He was pulled over by a state trooper for
 DS> his windows being tinted too darkly, at which time, his HOV
 DS> violation was discovered.

Yup: have heard stories of people using manniquins, blow-up dolls, and 
the like.  



 BM>So looks like the roadway expansions were mostly planned for.  Or at
 BM>least worked out so it looked like pre-planned.
 DS>   These construction deals of expanding lanes make as much sense
 DS> as tits on a boar hog. Sooner or later, you're going to be right
 DS> back at square one, on the traffic gridlock.

So far the roadway expansion in that part of town has alleviated traffic
jams.  ...So now to wait for 'later'!
