Does anyone know anything more about MnDot's position on this? Once again, I'm wondering how serious this proposal is and what its chances are....
Is there anyone on this list who supports this kind of "buy in?"

"Day said Monday that he would like to open the lanes to more drivers to help relieve congestion, but the Federal Highway Administration frowns on eliminating the restrictions. As an alternative, Day suggested opening the lanes to those willing to pay a $500 annual fee.That could raise $1 million on each highway for such purposes as hiring more state patrol officers, Day said."
