At first glance I also thought it was an accident waiting to happen. However, the thing is going to be mounted on to a rail so it won't have free reign to crash into the cars.
I don't see how that's going to freak out drivers at all. Might be a little weird at first but after it's passed over you a few times, you'd get used to it.
Wow.. is this even real? why don't they just do something about it?
YouTube- Broadcast Yourself.
Here the video the pics are from (some of the animation starts at about 0:55) They also predict a surprisingly high amount of busty white women will use their new transportation system.
What if a bigass truck needed to take a right and couldn't get under it? Wait for 30 seconds while it passes?
China is one seriously scary place to walk/drive.
The true lack of coordination from 95% of their population coupled with their classic communist "i don't give a fuuuuckkkkkkkkkkk" attitude it makes for insanity.
That youtube video posted above is so sad when people are getting owned hit by cars on bikes and everyone else just stands around after and looks and then goes about what they were doing.
I'm sure China will do it though, and do it halfassed like they do nearly everything else.
