David, DR. ROADMAP, Rizzo burst upon the traffic scene in late 1987 as the first person in Los Angeles to offer alternate routes to motorists who were sick and tired of being stuck in traffic. In 1990 he released to the world the most comprehensive guide ever written of off-freeway commuting in Southern California. Two years later he became the first traffic reporter to offer daily alternate routes in real time over the air on one of the most popular morning radio shows in Los Angeles. Dr. Roadmap continues to provide COMMUTE MANAGEMENT solutions with the 2006 release of his book, "Survive the Drive! How to Beat Freeway Traffic in Southern California."

Host: Are the free gas cards being offered to boost summer travel worth it?

David Rizzo: Only if you believe in a free lunch. I don't believe in free gas cards, they all come at a price. It's sounds tempting; yes we will give you a gas card if you do this and this and this but think about it, when you fill-out these forms they are getting your personal information so you can expect to see more spam in your e-mail box, more junk mail at your house, more telephone calls from solicitors. In another words usually the price for those free gas cards is information, your information. So it depends on what you feel your time is worth, personally I wouldn't deal with it, I think there is no such thing as a free lunch, there is no such thing as free gas, you are going to pay for it.
