No. Your claim that THIS [[i.e., talking to Brian Dickerson) is a waste of tax dollars is a weak argument.

I don't know. But who really cares? It seems obvious that this thing about signs and traffic is a PR move, intended to serve in MDOT's public campaign against Moroun, in their Gateway Project lawsuits and their DRIC campaign. [[But to answer, the traffic data seems to come from the operator of the bridge, so that's why Moroun could stop them).

As for the rest of it, about DRIC, that's another argument for another day and thread.
