Or have small selfdriving electrical vehicles on demand only. Why don't we have that? Anyone can build a super secure vehicle that plods along in the city at 20-30 kmh max.
Or larger electric self-driving vehicles on a track?
That sounds really energy efficient! We should have networks of these. We could make them run at specific intervals to optimise traffic flow.
steel wheels on steel roads has near zero rolling resistance, it is the future of automobiles.
Hey maybe those cars could be coupled together on the track, since they are going to the same place anyway.
I always think about the self driving vehicles when queueing in the car they would drastically cut the queueing time I guess.
Get a bike or mobility scooter.
Already got a mountainbike?
