The economy is doing better. More people driving to work. Fewer taking the bus and train.

When the economy was roaring in the 90's, traffic wasn't this bad.

Developer whose wife sat on Ethics Commission faces $15,000 fine over political donations

Hmm why would a developer raise money for local politicians ?

“Pak is a "prominent campaign fundraiser," according to the Los Angeles Times, whose wife was appointed to the City Ethics Commission in December 2012 by Wesson. Pak raised money for Wesson, Cedillo and Mayor Eric Garcetti, among others, before the recent citywide elections, according to the Times. “
