I might add that the only thing that will change will be that we now will be
able to concentrate on what's up ahead and not keep watching the rear view
mirror for the dreaded Black and Whites.  I doubt that the speeds on the
freeways will change much...traffic conditions permitting the traffic flow
moves at around 65-70mph or more most of the time anyway.  

I suspect that some municipalities may see decrease in revenue too.

Gee, maybe we can get some of the brain dead people who drive 55 in the #land
2 lanes to get out of the way and over to the right where they belong.
