The way they aim to save money is by building very small-diameter tunnels and putting the cars on a "skate". Great in theory but they aren't considering how scary riding at 60mph with tunnel walls just outside the window will be. In the unlikely event that one of these tunnels is actually built, we'll see quite a number of people ride it once and then swear it off.

I'll take my chances on a skateboard in a tunnel compared to Donnie Dimwit's and Dismal Dora's texting their ways into early graves behind the wheel now, thanks...
