Tiny flakes of plastic, generated by the wear and tear of normal driving, eventually accumulate in the soil, in rivers and lakes, and even in our food.
And maybe we could connect a bunch of cars together to create some kind of, I dunno, super-car. That way you could move a bunch of people to the same destination in one go.
Sounds like it’ll be rough on the road, but I’m willing to try it! /s
I miss the trains of NJ and NYC so badly, this part of Texas fucking sucks with public transportation. Losing access to a car here has you flirting dangerously close to homelessness. Which is also why I’ll usually give a ride to anyone who asks around here.
If only there was an alternative.
What if we replace vulcanized rubber with a metal ring 🤔
I see where you’re going. We should all switch to steel tracked Abrams tanks! /jk
To make sure it doesn’t destroy the road we could put metal in them also…
Delightfully devilish, Seymour.
Naah. Propellers!
We make the tyres solid and the road rubber!
wait, no, damnit
Maybe it could also run on some kind of metal street, to further reduce friction? 🤔
we could probably manage traffic much easier if switching was controlled vs. random drivers…
While we’re at it, maybe we could install some powerlines to provide the vehicles with electricity. That way they could run on renewable energy.
This would also reduce the need for lithium!

We could call those super-cars “pods” and make millions in investor money!
Or! We propose that their are specific stops where local business could thrive, etc. - Maybe we can simply be funded by governments?
Guys what if we just used trains
Nonono, blockchained AI powered pods!
How are the poors supposed to see my wealth?
What am I, some kind of poor? Ew.
