mid sized cities. you'll see a percentage and a dollar amount. the percentage is the percentage of roads in that area that are ranked poor and you can see in antioch and concord it's well over 50%, and the dollar amount is how much damage it causes to your vehicle in terms of repair, maintenance, wear and tear, that sort of thing and again looking at over $900 and by the way, santa rosa is ranked seventh on the list. look at the large cities and again bay area cities ranked top in the country, unfortunately. san francisco, oakland and san jose respectively first and second. 71%, 64%, and cost your vehicle around $1,000. how bad is it in oakland? >> bad. i think i changed my tires about two times, so it's pretty bad. >> reporter: does that surprise you? >> yeah. >> reporter: it does? >> because i don't think the roads are that bad out here. maybe in san francisco but not

to do the right thing. part of the healing for me is to have a voice. >> the diocese has a lot to do. the catholic church has a lot to do. i don't think they satisfied anybody. >> reporter: the san jose diocese was the first to announce that it would release the name and status of every priest with credible accusations against them. since then the san francisco and the oakland diocese and others announced they would do the same. the final listening session, withcy public today, is at santa teresa parish in san jose is at 3:00 this afternoon. i pressed the diocese for more information on when that list of priests might be released. it was supposed to be mid-october. again, i did not get an answer yesterday, but patrick mcgraw, the bishop, will be available after that listening session this afternoon. we'll ask him again then. in san jose, kris sanchez, "today in the bay." >> thank you for latest there, kris. all right, if you were in the bay area 29 years ago you'll

>> i thought you were going to say we see you doing in the parking lot. >> no, never, you're responsible. >> the guy went to san jose state, who invented those dots. i'll check on my facts. the dots are sometimes on the shoulder of the freeway, i call them turtles as well. looking at at smooth drive. northbound 101 slow at the bottom of your screen a tad bit as the volume builds about now and eases up then builds again. we know that pattern. the rest of the bay pretty much on pattern, except for north 238 a new crash in the last few minutes. we see more slowing, from yellow to orange approaching 880. smooth drive for the rest of the approach. the bay bridge metering lights, it's the bay bridge. >> there we go. and it's wednesday, almost to the weekend. >> we look forward to the weekend. >> always. >> we start off early. something to look forward to. if sunshine is your thing you'll look forward to this weekend.
