Terms and conditions apply. Vehicle may run you over or eject your seat if social score undesirable.
Is this real life or is it just fantasy? Will this train allow you to, escape from gridlock reality?
oh... wait... sorry, have to charge the train. Please, get out and find another method of transport. Should be ready to travel again in a few hours.

In Los Angeles, we have the Orange Line, a bus operating on its own dedicated busway. Itโs not self driving. Public transport isn't widely used here, and while the Orange Line is less popular than our subway options, it still shares similarities with regular buses. Despite having its own private way, the Orange Line stops at red lights, similar to other buses in the San Fernando Valley. If this were a railed train system, there would be train crossings where cars stop to allow passage, but since it's considered a "bus," it adheres to traffic signals, even if you are a block away, there is no advantage to taking the orange line over the bus that runs a block north of it. They did a nice job on the bike path that runs beside it tho, I *drive* out to it frequently to have a relatively safer place to bike.
I did not know that!! would you try this bus/train thing in China ?
Sure, the self driving aspect is neat. Hopefully the novelty of this system isnโt so novel a decade out.
this also shows some boarding terminals that are more reminiscent of the habor transit way, which is like 5-6 stops that are raised in the center of the 101 freeway. The bus goes through downtown then jumps down to Long Beach. This works slightly better because itโs a freeway they donโt ever have a red light. I think the switch from intercity traffic to designated way causes huge irregularities in โtrain timesโ making it very un-train like.
cables over cities can be dangerous but itโs certainly greener to go with out the battery.
I use the red line (real subway) 4-10 times a year, the bus system i avoid entirely. 
*110 not 101 I miss named freeways
They ran a train on that bus.
aaaayyyyyooooo
I wouldnโt doubt it, thatโs my fav Asian cornstar genre
Zero emissions of brain waves
Ah yes, zero pollution, because China's electricity is super clean lol
Tracks made of paint marks on asphalt.
China's history of infrastructure maintenance would never cause any problems with something like that.
What could go wrong if that thing follows a trail of white dots on the road?? ๐ณ
