I hope that the gas prices climb even higher. I think this is just sick when millions are spent on building the roads... While it would be much better to invest in better community transport. And of course bike roads. It mean I have to wait at least 20 minutes for the bus, sometimes it doesn't even come. And when it does. I have to stand in the old smelly bus. If community transportation would be better and had privileges I think many people would ditch their car and prefer the environment healthy way. But it's easy for me to talk. I haven't renewed my driving license:D I agree with the writer. I hope that the gas prices climb even higher.

I don't know if that could legally happen, but we could sustain our own demand quite easily.
