I've lived in LA for 27 years. The problem here is not the design of the city's grid. The problem is the lack of public transportation. The city is not a city like Chicago or New York is a city. LA is a bunch of suburbs dispersed across a very large land mass.

There are too many cars on the road and five lane freeways don't fix the issue. Traffic has been getting worse year by year. If they just offered an appropriate metro, I would take it. If they had busses that arrived more frequently than 30-40 minutes, I'd ride them. Add wifi and I may never drive again.

Maybe this will be the catalyst to finally solve the public transportation problems that ruin this city.
