"Los Angeles is set for chaos this weekend as a busy stretch of Highway 405 is getting widened. The event could displace as many as 500,000 motorists.
It's such a serious event it's been dubbed Carmageddon.
Celebs with big twitter followings have been asked to help get the word out and minimize confusion. Jet blue is offering a cure for Carmageddon that is as convenient as it is planet-unfriendly: $4 tickets from Burbank to Long Beach.
Carmageddon will only last for the weekend. But even after the 405 reopens, Angelinos might still find bad traffic a fact of life."
