There's an awful lot of white people riding that thing.

Smellvin - 2010-08-02 Chinese people are smart enough to stay off those things. They're just for tourists.

I don't get it. It's like the automated walkways in airports, but your supposed drive into like you're Knight Rider?

Comatose2 - 2010-08-03 You're right that it won't solve all gridlock problems, but it will certainly help. I'm looking forward to seeing how effective it is.
My concern is with just how safe it will be in the inevitable collisions. Like if someone runs into the side of the trolley/bus, will it collapse on top of a bunch of cars? Chinese cars are infamous for how poorly they fare in crash tests, so I shudder to think of how they will fare when a bus falls on them.

If drivers already have an irrational fear of driving too close to jersey barriers, a moving tunnel is going to be a tough sell.

wait, what?
|
heyitslozeau - 2010-08-02 so this just makes people drive in their own fucking lanes?
|
Potrod - 2010-08-02 No, it reduces traffic by removing all the buses from the road, replacing them with this thing that basically takes up zero space on the road that normal cars use. Basically it seems like it's just adding a bus-only lane without taking any more space on the ground.

That does not look even remotely safe.

Yeah there's only a couple thousand ways this can go horrifically wrong. The world is going to hell, and this is the bus that will take us there.

This will impact the lives of .00000000% of the Chinese people.

This could be the setup for the greatest robbery ever.

I think this design is a good idea, and apparently it will be a reality within the next couple of months.

This is a terrific idea for AtGradeCrossingsOnly City, South ThirtyFootOverpassClearancekota.
I can't wait to see the version of this:
