Yes each tunnel is limited by the speed of the slowest vehicle, but if the tunneling cost is low enough (it certainly would be lower without skates and special tracks) you could have a "slow lane" and a "fast lane"
- subculture 8y agoI pay a lot of attention to my car's maintenance and tire wear, but that wouldn't be true for everyone in the tunnels. High speeds are also more stressful on wheels and ancillary parts. The idea of skates seems like it would help normalize capabilities/limits of cars in the tunnels.
