Travis Kalanick Quotes
I know about traffic.

The mayor had resisted the rebuilding of a major downtown elevated highway when it was discovered that it was badly in need of repair. Typically, local officials accede to almost any pressure from AAA and the commercial interests wanting to see traffic flow maintained and improved. But a large proportion of the citizens preferred to have the downtown open to the waterfront and wanted the highway torn down despite the negative impact on vehicular traffic. Typically the traffic interests would prevail but Nickles refused to “pander” to the traffic interests.
