| | Travel Value Pricing -- |
 | | Pricing of some infrastructure to allow relatively congestion-free travel through the thick of rush hour traffic provides new opportunities for meeting the demands of life. |
 | | People prefer a "free," un-tolled road to a toll road, but an existing road is never truly "paid for." After opening day, it begins to deteriorate from exposure to the sun, rain, freeze-thaw cycle, and the weight of vehicles. |
 | | One should be concerned with the possibility of electronic tracking of vehicles for road pricing and toll collection becoming an invasion of privacy and a curtailment of liberty, especially with universal metering. |
