Not sure Americans are going to give up driving their 15mpg SUVs and F150s when gas is dropping to $1.50/gallon
Maybe millennials or their children will finally think differently though.
ps. I really hope it was a marketing idiot and not an engineer that came up with the concept photo of the tube sitting lower than the bridge so ships cannot pass.
- rhino369 11y agoIt's more of a replacement for slow Amtrak and airplane travel than for cars.
- Natsu 11y agoThat looks like an artist's rendering to me. They appear to have done it to keep the bridge in the picture instead of blocking it, sacrificing realism for aesthetics. Also, I don't think this is meant to replace cars per se. It looks more like it could replace shorter flights to me. For example, people could take trips to Las Vegas on one instead of going by plane.
