Israelis rush to Tel Aviv

We in the States think we know traffic. Let me tell you, the people in Israel know traffic, too. Traffic jams getting to and out of Israel's major cities have increased greatly in the past 10 years. A country whose citizens could not embrace the automobile for 50 years because of the price of cars and fuel, now finds itself jammed with them.

So, no surprise that Israel, a technologically advanced country, is thinking outside the box when it comes to its highways and alleviating traffic flow problems. Privately owned toll roads are now being planned for a Tel Aviv highway that will charge drivers for when they drive.

Here's the report: Tel Aviv fast lane is a world first - Globes.

Be sure, if it works, look for similar thinking to occur in the United States.
