Christie says he sought answers on lane closures

Gov. Chris Christie said he started asking staff members to get more details about traffic jams in the northern New Jersey town of Fort Lee last year soon after they were over and he heard they were a source of contention. He came under a new round of scrutiny last week after the lawyer for a former Christie ally wrote a letter saying "Evidence exists" that Christie knew about major traffic jams caused by closing lanes approaching the bridge in Fort Lee, a plot said to have been undertaken for political retribution. The lawyer for David Wildstein, who was Christie's No. 2 man at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs the bridge, did not give any other details about the evidence. Christie said his office was among those handing over documents over time.
