CARS
Coming soon on I-5 south of Seattle. Very interesting program to reduce crashes that tend to occur after another crash has resulted in heavy congestion.

Well, here in Seattle I guess we need it...Seattle has the worst traffic congestion in the country, with 43% of the city's roads having "HEAVY DELAYS", according to global positioning system (GPS) company TomTom. We were even higher than LA , which only had 38% of roads with heavy delays.
