Congestion

Traffic is the single biggest aggravation in Southern California. And accidents are the leading cause of traffic congestion. Suggestion: three traffic accidents on the freeway and you’re out! If the small percentage of poor drivers involved in repeated accidents were banned from access to the freeways, traffic congestion would be greatly reduced. Insurance rates might be mitigated. Other suggestions: Drivers with repeat stalls on the freeways might be banned for a period of time to encourage better maintenance of their vehicles. Vehicle inspections for road worthiness could be documented with stickers, in effect, denying access to freeways for vehicles not meeting minimum reliability requirements.
