LAX Aims To Speed Up Security Lines With ‘Innovation Lanes’
LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Air travelers who resent waiting in line will get some relief when Los Angeles International Airport opens its first two “innovation lanes,” which are designed to speed security screening by up to 30 percent, by the end of the week.

I would do almost ANYTHING to avioid that s##thole of an airport. They need to get with the real world
Yea, it's bad now, but it was worse in the late 60s and 70s. All the roadway was on ground level (recall the opening scenes in the movie 'Airplane'). During holiday periods, I heard of traffic on Century Blvd being backed up much of the way east to the '405. Haven't been out there in a while, maybe that's happening again.
