" Solutions have escaped us because we can't imagine a Virginia in which businesses will leave because of traffic, or that the military could leave. But businesses can leave and the military will leave and yank its people if it can't move them around like they need to. And our universities won't prosper if people can't get to them...Imagine what Virginia will be like if businesses leave, if the military leaves and our children leave because the good jobs are gone.? Anything we can make up our minds to do, we can do. And we must solve this transportation problem."
