The freeway represents the Internet service providers, while the cars represent websites, companies, and applications. With net neutrality, all the cars move at the same speed to the same destination. If net neutrality is repealed, then the freeway is able to add a fast, moderate, and a slow lane. The fast lane would be similar to the HOV or carpool lane, but instead of the number of people are in the car, eligibility to use the lane would be based on the amount of money the company has and is willing to spend. The wealthy companies who are willing to spend money in order to use the fast lane will be enabled to deliver their product faster than any other site in the other lanes. The slow lane would consist of small or starter up websites who cannot afford much, making the moderate lane to consist of companies who can afford to not be in the slow lane but cannot afford to be in the fast lane. If companies are unable to pay the fees to be on the freeway, then they will be the cars pulled
