Jane Pauley to Anchor CBS News Primetime Special NO EXIT!

CBS News' Jane Pauley will anchor "No Exit!," a one-hour CBS News primetime special exploring America's love/hate relationship with our highways and byways, and how millions of us cope with our increasingly difficult daily commute, to be broadcast Friday, May 17(9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

The special will feature the familiar team of CBS SUNDAY MORNING correspondents exploring the past, present and future of transportation. The special will highlight everything from the most scenic drives in America, to people with the craziest commutes, to the boom in scooters, the promise of flying cars, some thoughts from comedian Jim Gaffigan and much more. "No Exit!" will look at how the country's major arteries often resemble moving parking lots. The special will also reveal what countries around the world have the worst traffic jams.
