I hadn't heard of shweeb, but after a look at the website, it does indeed sound like a remarkably unworkable idea. Still, maybe there's some kind of possible idea for human-powered public transportation that doesn't look like a haven for system-destroying minor breakdowns and upskirt photographers.
There's also a lesson in there somewhere about how if you have an idea which seems silly, you should avoid also giving it a silly name.
- allenp 16y agoI think you hit the nail on the head - it really just sounds unworkable. Just getting civic approval seems unsurmountable, the system seems frail (breakdowns, capacity, misuse) and all it is going to take is one person to have a serious medical issue with no chance of early responders being able to address the issue for this to get shutdown.
