Transit -Pod Car

















i did my research on transit. however, found a really interesting new transportting system that i wanted to focus on talking about. According to the CNN article that i've found "The thought of a driverless, computer-guided car transporting people where they want to go on demand is a futuristic notion to some" is the idea of a pod car.

Each pod car carries 2-10 passengers at a time, but also giving the freedom and privacy to their car is something that unlikely alike to any other public transportations out there. The creator of the car described it as " an elevator but only its moving horizontally."

In terms of the concept, it may sounds as fascinating as it should be. But It's actually yet another great design for life product. Because it not only reduces the use of fossil fuels, the traffic congestion but it's also safer than automobile travel.
