I just got back from Portland, where I was really impressed with the light rail system--clean, graceful, beautiful, quiet.

But there was one moment when my sister, who was driving the rental car, suddenly pulled way over to the right on a huge, wide street. "Look at the yellow line," she said. True, it gave us only one skinny lane. And the rest of the street was taken up with a very wide arc of trolley tracks coming around the corner.

I wonder what their accident record was like when the MAX trains first went in.
