Maybe we should build streets especially for them, then. Except I don't think they'll need the full width of a normal street. With their computer-driven precision they could probably get by with just a couple of narrow strips of metal.

No, just one strip of... it's really more of a shelbyville idea

I've heard those things are awfully loud.

And you could probably optimize traffic by increasing the size of the cars to include a lot more seats, or even standing room. Or even connecting multiple cars together for efficiency if there are a lot of other people who want to take the same route.

you're on to something 🤔 perhaps some type of rail that goes on the road for high speed travel hmm

[-] Mr_Fish@lemmy.nz 8 points 6 hours ago

Ah yes, trains, the logistics version of "evolve into crab"

People always complain about "reinventing the wheel," but it just brings me so much joy when the discussion inevitably ends in rediscovering trains as the ideal mode of transportation.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

I'm fairly sure trebutchets are the ultate mode of transportation though.

[-] deft@lemmy.wtf 3 points 5 hours ago

Trains are good but trolleys are too

You guys need to watch Adam Something (or probably already do) 🤣

[-] green_link@lemmy.world 4 points 7 hours ago

we'll rename the cars to "pods"

Pretty sure some wooden planks in the middle would do wonders for stability and durability. Maybe some gravel too. Why has nobody thought of this yet??
