Public Transport Concept by Jake Eadie

TheFuture — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 10:37:38 +0000

If you have the urge to travel and site see in Prato, Italy then here comes this driverless vehicle. This public transport has 6 wheels, electric power source and drive computer. Its speed range is very slow ranging from 5 to 15 km/h. Around 6 people can sit comfortably and 4 to 5 people can stand while traveling. The view would be amazing while traveling because there are glasses on all four sides of this vehicle. The overall concept and design is great but I doubt how far it would fulfill future mobility and public transport needs.
