How Insensitive

How insensitive can VDOT be? Well, they're all racists, and didn't even realize it.
There's a new turn in the debate over high occupancy toll lanes or HOT lanes.

A lawsuit filed by Arlington County last month claims the lanes benefit wealthy white people and discriminates against minorities. While the only rule to get in the HOV lanes on Interstate 395 is you must have three people in the car, Arlington claims adding HOT lanes would cut out poor and minorities by defacto.
'Cause you can't get three minorities in a car without... I guess I'd better stop right there.
"It is not our intention to play a race card. I think that's a very divisive approach," Favola told FOX5.
But we will, because we think there's some money in it.
