I think that what free for your just looking at the roads and highways narrowly i understand the point, but if you are looking at the broader trend that we are talking about here what i see coming forward is a massive amount of gridlock that we will be hitting the highway systems. And i think that we need to be thinking in terms of, you know an automobile off of the road with a net benefit to a truck driver trying to get from one place to another and can only use about to get their.
