It doesn't need to be. Link to the local paper. There's a lot of misinformation being used today. It's not new, but we have the resources to verify things now. We need due diligence, not pontification.

You may need to Google that article title and click through to read it but it outlines that even at $7 each way the price wasn't high enough so now it's $10 each way (not $8 as I stated.) Even so, the $3 price hike has done little to ease congestion.

Clearly the only scientific thing would be to have different tolls on different weekdays. Monday: $25, Tuesday: $10, Wednesday: $17, Thursday: $50, Friday: $31. Now you can see which price eases congestion the most!
