Allow me to dismiss this out of hand. How would the people even get access to such transportation? Some kind of point of gathering where they could collectively enter or exit these “pods”? Dumb. While we’re at it, and just for the sake of argument, these pods could go at significant speed since they’ll be on their own “rail“ systems (as you call them). This would dramatically decrease the travel time for commuters, but is of course ridiculous on its’ face! Best not to even consider trying such high speed “rail” systems. Back to the cars! ICE over the communist “EV”!
