What positive things are you starting to see in light of high gas prices?

too bad I still haven't found anyone to carpool with. LA is too spread out and public transportation is not extensive enough sadly. I easily put 2K miles a month. Anyone want to carpool from OC to El Segundo? hehehe.

not sure what or where you guys are driving, but traffic seems to be the same for me. same crowded freeways, same idiot people, same people driving suvs. if anything ive seen 5 newly regsitered hummer h2's in the past 3 weeks around where i live. the only thing i see different now is people seem to be driving slower, which pisses me off since they are usually doing it in the fast lane.

All these end in "Because I don't drive."
Gas lasts much longer
I don't have to complain about commuter traffic
I'm not irritated at other drivers as much
I have more $$ to spend on other things
Auto insurance will go down
Bodyfat has dropped a percentage or so because I can devote more time to riding my bicycle
Riding the bicycle has been good for my heart
At this rate, I'll be in the very good physical condition for my age...

Hmm only positve I see is less cheap junk cars I have to worry about on the road and worry about hitting me and thats about it still too much traffic and more bikes (motorcycle) means more people splitting lanes biggest negitive more road ragers over stupid stuff, and it still costs 80 bucks to fill up each time
