In response to higher gas prices, Americans drove 1.4 billion fewer miles this April than they did in March.
This is good, right?
Not to cunt Transportation Secretary Mary Peters.
SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU STUPID SLUT, DRIVING LESS IS A GOOD THING!!!

Peters said vehicle miles traveled on all public roads for April fell 1.8 percent from April 2007.
Americans have driven nearly 20 billion fewer miles overall this year and nearly 30 billion fewer miles since November, the department said.
Peters expressed concern that the cutbacks have resulted in the collection of fewer taxes on gasoline. Such taxes are funneled to the federal Highway Trust Fund, which gets 18.4 cents per gallon from gasoline and 24.4 cents per gallon from diesel fuel.
"History shows that we're going to continue to see congested roads while gas tax revenues decline even further," she said.
So....we drive less, but somehow there will be more traffic.
SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU STUPID SLUT, DRIVING LESS IS A GOOD THING!!!
