ADVISORY/Untangled Traffic Within Voters' Grasp; Auto Club Joins With California Highway Patrol to Support Proposition 42

    --Automobile Club of Southern California

Who:              The Auto Club's Transportation Chief, Dan Beal, the 
                  CHP and the California Transit Assoc. join forces to 
                  support Prop. 42 in front of one of L.A.'s most 
                  congested freeway interchanges, which would receive 
                  funding to improve traffic if the measure passes.

What:             Prop. 42 is a measure on the March 5th ballot that 
                  would provide more than $1 billion annually without
                  raising taxes to improve freeway congestion,
                  highways, interchanges, mass transit, potholes and
                  storm drains.

When:             Thursday, Jan. 24, 2002 at 10 a.m.

Where:            Luminaria's Restaurant, 3500 Ramona Blvd, Monterey 
                  Park. (Southeast of the 10/710 Interchange).

Why:              California's transportation infrastructure has been 
                  neglected for decades. California's roads, once the 
                  envy of the nation, are now rated the worst. 
                  California spends less per resident on road 
                  maintenance and repair than any other state.
