A better question is how will we determine an error rate?<br><br>Personally 1 in 10,000 would be worth running the script for me. But I would be much happier with 1 in 1,000,000 and a higher skip rate for the odd cases. Keeping in mind 1 in 1,000,000 is probably 0.5 to 1 error per state on average. That would be ridiculously good.<br>

</div>What percentage of roads, where the old script would have punted, are<br>
now being expanded correctly?<br>
<br>
What error rate is acceptable?<br>
