ImUrOBGYN Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 The pic may be fake, but China's central government has approved a pilot program in Beijing's Mentougou district, where an initial 115 miles of track is to be laid strarting by the end of the year. I wonder what'll be cheaper. Buying a ticket or investing in a grappling hook and rollerblades. Of course, this is China so who knows. http://jalopnik.com/5602570/chinese-to-revolutionize-cities-with-traffic+straddling-bus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, this thing is sort of ripping off the holocaust, since it will end up killing millions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Does it travel faster than traffic? Man that could scare the crap out of someone if it comes from behind and it is unexpected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ansonivan Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 If I was a Chinese engineer I would also come up with an absurd invention called "the straddler" "who wants to ride the straddler?" "I do, I do!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
