Price of oil is down, but that is only temporary.</p> http://chicagoist.com/2008/11/21/tollway_board_approves_carpool_plan.php#comment-1522815 http://chicagoist.com/2008/11/21/tollway_board_approves_carpool_plan.php#comment-1522815 Comments Fri, 21 Nov 2008 12:52:07 -0600 <p>I like that they will be allowing higher tolls for single-occupancy vehicles. I was vehemently opposed to the "solely HOV" iteration of this, because it taken away a lane would only worsen congestion, as not enough would switch to carpooling to offset the reduction in capacity. However, if they want to dedicate a lane to HOV, but allow all drives to use it, after paying a toll, that's gravy.</p>
