REMINDER/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 Association join 
                  forces to support Proposition 42 in front of one of 
                  Los Angeles' most congested freeway interchanges, 
                  which would receive funding to improve traffic if 
                  the measure passes.

What:             Proposition 42 is a measure on the March 5 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.
