Well, a commute across the bay bridge is one of the worst commutes in the nation. It is so slow. It really is. So abc 7 morning traffic reporter alexis smith and sky 7 conducted our own bay bridge time challenge during one mornings commute. Lets see which lane won, fast track or cash. Its a mind numbing crawl to get to the bay bridge toll plaza in the morning. Drivers weave in and out of traffic. What seem like a 15 minute drive should take up to an hour. Its getting worse, the fast track lanes is backed up more than the cash lane. We wanted to know whats really happening. I got in sky 7 to give us a view from above. All of them take fast truck, still some except fast track. What is really faster, we did a comparison and two abc 7 news car with cameras and put 7s on the roof so we can track them. We started to see how long it takes to get at the toll plaza. The blue 7 is going through the cash lanes and weve got the red 7 going through the fast track lanes. Minutes in, so far looks like cash is moving a little bit faster. Whats keeping the red 7. It had to cross over to get into the only lanes in the center. I was trying to get over. Cash cars lead doesnt last long. It looks like weve got the fast track card, the red 7 catching up and passing the blue, the cash car nearly 35 minutes into the commute. Traffic slows down and its the driver in the cash lane creating a problem. Weve seen car after car leave those cash lanes, cutting off the fast track only lanes. The cab driver is feeling the pinch. Hes getting cut off because these guys are trying to get over into the fast track so its effecting the fast track, too. Its just about five minutes faster than the fast lane, probably not as saving. Thats consistent with what we found over the years. Hes with the transportation commission. Evidently, there are some folks that their time is more valuable than others. He says those drivers who cut over at the last minute play a big part in slowing down traffic. Theres no Real Advantage game by the folks as we call them the dive bombers. Its tried to prevent that by installing flexible pylons, good win says consider drivers will go a long way in speeding up trsk, but the commission is also looking at ways to eliminate the cash option from the bridge to speed things up. The Golden Gate Bridge stopped taking cash tolls in 2013. Since then the flow of traffic on the bridge has improved. Theres no set date for when the bay bridge might stop taking cash. There are a number of things that we need to do because the traffic valiums are so much greater on the bay bridge. In the meantime drivers are looking for relief and leaving earlier wont help them. The mtc says the busiest time on the bay bridge is between five p. M. And 6 00 a. M. Its guy 7 clom alexus fifth. Abc has your coverage.
