I’d give it slim to none, too, but only because there’s no clear way of exiting exactly where you want. I doubt accidents would be a prob, since redundant electronic controls are proving more logical than ppl. As for steel…well, there’s a LOT of steel in modern freeways.
John – I agree. A track underneath would make more sense. There’s an automated warehousing system somewhere that uses a High-Speed In-Flight Transfer system.
Products move onto and off of the flat-bed cars of this behemoth at pretty high speeds. Unlike Denver Airport’s toss-a-bag, it reportedly worked pretty well.
If these guys (mono-rail) have a way to quickly and safely switch from one freeway to another, then they may be onto something. Otherwise, hmm…

“The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that accelerating rapidly and braking hard can reduce your car’s fuel efficiency by as much as five percent.”
Accelerating rapidly will cost a lot of gas, that makes sense, but how does braking hard cause the same effect on gas? Shouldn’t it be saving gas instead, since there is a cut on gas burning?

If you find yourself stuck in a snow storm inside your car and it has a full tank of gas, is it more resourceful to keep your car running the entire time until you run completely out of gas or start the car until your warm, turn it off until you lose heat, then start the car again until your warm, turn it off until you lose heat, continuously until you run out of gas?

The EPA’s website says, “Go easy on the brakes and gas pedal. Avoid “jackrabbit” starts by accelerating gradually whenever possible. Also, anticipate stops to avoid sudden braking.”
I understand how accelerating rapidly increases gas usage, but how does breaking rapidly waste gas?
