The images were provided by somebody that saw this suv in the south bay. Can you see the sensors, the Radar Technology and the cameras on the top of the suv. Apple secured permission to test its Autonomous Car two weekends ago. Ahow do you boost your credit . Hey, ramona. Let me give you the most important thing first, pay all your bills and pay them on time. Next, watch your credit utilization. Its how much of your credit you use at anyone given time. If you have 1,000 credit limit on your credit card and you keep your balance below 300, thats a 30 utilization and that gives you the best score. Now dont apply for too much credit all at once either. That drops your credit score. Finally, keep your very first credit card open, the longer your credit history, the better. Good luck and thanks for the question. If you have a question for Michael Finney record it on your smartphone or tablet and share on social media with askfinney.

Station and seems like its light traffic here, a lot less people than we are used to at the fremont b. A. R. T. Station at 6 30 in the morning. Heres good news. I just went and talked to the station agent and he said they have the disabled train off the tracks now so they are starting to work through those delays and he did say right now there are still 20minute delays for passengers who are taking b. A. R. T. This morning. Of course it has been a big headache all morning long, and its friday, and well send it back to you in the studio. Thanks, matt. Yeah, obviously we have been tracking this for quite sometime. They are seeing delays system wide. And the delays really more about 15 to 20 minutes, and obviously great information there, great news that we have that disabled train totally off the tracks at this point.
