Transportation Secretary Shifts Gears
Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood visits with the AARP to discuss transportation initiatives and liva communities for people of all ages.
"What we're promoting is that you don't have to be in your car all the time," LaHood said. "I know that a lot of older Americans want to live in rural communities but also want transportation to the city to go to the doctor, the hospital, the grocery store, the drug store, the department store--whatever. We put emphasis on making sure that people that live in the rural communities who can't drive or don't want to drive can have access to transportation, too."
