Trinity Conspiracy Theories

A friend called yesterday afternoon, furious, convinced he’d slowly come upon a successful Vote No tactic: Yesterday after lunch, he had business in Duncanville (I’m assuming at the Cherry Pit). He said once he exited the Dallas North Tollway south onto I-35, bam, he hit gridlock. When he finally passed the mixmaster, he said there was a lone vehicle in the middle lane, turned off, with nobody in it. Then he hit 35 south of town. Bam, again, a parking lot. He says, again, it takes a half-hour before coming to the source of the problem, which was another car in the middle lane. “I’m sure this was intentional,” said the friend, a lawyer who has been in the Vote Yes camp for weeks. “Because right now I’d vote for 10 tollways! It’s diabolical and genius.”

    Does this post on the DMN Editorial Blog make anybody wonder about how informed they are?

    As a fan of conspiracy theories, I like where this guy’s head is at. I would have liked it more if he had involved the explosion that shut down I-35, I-30, and life as we know it a few months back. I spent a month on the road that day.

    Unfortunately, as someone with a longtime hatred of driving and drivers, I have to say this is standard operating procedure. Every car in town could have its own individual road and there would still be delays.

    If this happens during morning rush hour, call me.

    Anyone think of getting a license plate number?

    So why doesn’t Dallas follow Houston’s lead and quickly dispatch tow trucks to move the offending vehicles? It’s not that hard a problem to fix. No need to build a high-speed limited access tollroad to fix it.

    I highly doubt his business in Duncanville was at the Cherry Pit. they are only open on Friday and Saturday nights!
