Reading tip I: It took Chris Davies some time to get used to the Toyota iRoad’s “tilting sensation” but he soon got the hang of it and happily cruised along while also finding some time to talk to Makoto Morita, leader of the iRoad project.

Reading tip II: HOV lanes in California are becoming less and less of a privilege as they are increasingly crowded. Plans to ease the traffic go from expansion to allowing only vehicles with more than one or two passengers to use them.
