In Europe we are already trying to make more space for pedestrians specially around the city center. The value of the land above ground is incredible. Freeing up those spaces from cars makes sense and is incredibly nice.
- ben_w 6y agoI know, check my profile ;) But: 1. Musk doesn’t live in Europe, he set up TBC while stuck in a traffic jam in Los Angeles. 2. Solid car trains moving at full speed (whatever that is for the road, 20 kph for residential or much higher than the current rules for highways) use less land area than any other traffic, so some lanes can become bicycle only or whatever. 3. They can “perfectly” obey traffic lights and give way to pedestrians 4. Raised walkways are cheaper than tunnels
