Freeway Confusion
- Share via
About the Aug. 15 story, “Diamond Lanes To Be Added to Simi Freeway,” I cannot believe that Assemblywoman Paula Boland (R-Granada Hills) stated, “It is unfair to deny some people access to the freeway” on diamond lanes.
Doesn’t Mrs. Boland understand that diamond lanes do not deny people access to the freeway?
The purpose of diamond lanes is to deny solo drivers access to that particular lane, not the freeway as a whole.
Mrs. Boland also voted against the new law mandating that all motorcyclists wear helmets, demonstrating her ignorance of transportation and safety issues.
The people of the 38th Assembly District deserve better informed representation.
