| We need to borrow the technology that the | | | | motorcycles, taxi cabs, limos and passenger cars |

| monitor the movement and keep flows moving | | | | zoom out, replay, record sessions, back up. Move |
| under circumstances involving Choke Point | | | | to another state, county, city streets, just like a |
| breakages in the Highyway and railway systems | | | | Google Map, but in 3D and 4D. $D in that you can |
| in case a bridge out, an accident occurs or god | | | | see subways underneath tunnels and |
| forbid we are attacked again by International | | | | double-decker freeways such as in Seattle, SF, |
| Terrorists. Such a tool could help people like | | | | San Antonio. You can see the NY subways, Bart |
| Secretary of Transportation of the current | | | | trains under the bay, the Baltimore Tunnel, you |
| administration make split second decisions using a | | | | see, why we need this? And since we have the |
| complete visualization in real time.Imagine looking | | | | technology, we can run the system to perfection, |
| down at a holographic view of a city, state or the | | | | increasing our nations productivity, decreasing |
