San Diego rush hour traffic

[Akula1992]

Aecetia,

I have actually seen the carpool thingy work pretty well when I lived outside of Washington DC. People would park in the commuter lots outside the city and basically get in lines at designated spots depending on what their destination was. There they called it “slugging” and the person looking for a ride was a “slug”. Another person would come along and pick up a couple of folks that wanted to go to the same, or nearly same, destination and they would be able to use the HOV-3 lane. The riders didn’t pay for gas or anything else. They merely got the ride for free and the person driving the car got the free benefit of being able to use the HOV lane – a huuuuuge benefit in the DC Metro area.

One of my friends used it every day. She would go down to the commuter parking lot a little bit early and catch a ride.(She worked at the Pentagon so it was really simple.) At the end of the day she would do the reverse process and get a ride back to the commuter lot she parked at and drive the 2 miles or so back home.

People incentivize(sp?) very well. All they normally need is a reason to change their behavior and the knowledge that an alternative exists.

I commute from OC to LA. The carpool lane is gridlocked with solo prius drivers. There’s little to no time benefit to carpooling now.

No more rush hour traffic for me. First our offices moved from Sorrento Valley to Downtown, so no more of the 805 anymore. Then, my fiance and I decided to find a place downtown to rent while we watch the market normalize. My four block walk is the best commute I have ever had. I finally had to break down and fill up the tank yesterday, and that was very frustrating, even though it was the first time in six weeks….

FLU, I’ve got a biodiesel guy that works for me that drives a VW Jetta. Currently, is costs him only $0.76 / gallon to produce. He’s got a pretty efficient system that produces about 39 gallons each batch and only takes a handful of days to go through the process. The cost may go up a bit as he may need to start paying for the “used” oil that he had as a resource for the past few years to ensure that he gets the exclusive rights to that restaurants oil. Apparently there are more and more people trying to process their own over the past few months and actually creating supply and demand.

Your biodiesel friend is going to find his fuel a little less cheap when he starts paying the fed and state taxes he is currently evading…
