What I find odd is that they say you save money driving 65 mph cause you don't have to start and stop, but what they convientently leave out is that 183A is one of the more expensive toll roads. yeah its speedy, but with what you pay on the toll road equals out to what you would have paid for more gas.....while I have no problems with the toll road itself, their study was a waste of money....anyone off the street can tell you that what you save from not sitting in stop/go traffic will end up being spent on the tolls that are charged
