I love this idea!! needs a little work but it’s a great concept design, along with a pretty sound functioning plan.

did anyone notice the tire is scraping across the ground because its not propperly aligned with the other tires
and the tires are so small it couldn’t be very fast
and wouldn’t the seat be like sitting on a rail
Where is the previously mentioned storage
My $0.02

Car on a Stick? Is that what we call a target for missiles thrown by drunk adolescents? There is one reason why this would not work and it is not a design/technology flaw: In most metropolitan centres, in most developed nations of the world, a Car on a Stick would be destroyed by vandals within hours. Indeed, any city where these would not be vandalised would be so damn boring, you wouldn’t want to go there.

In the future… people will walk. Period.

just had a really amusing image in my head… so they carry four people… But hang on… surely during rush hour, you could squeeze say, 15 people in them??? Come on, at a push, we Londoners know exactly how to make use of every single available space offered up – i am sure I have performed mouse-like skeletal contortions on the tube over the years…. Think the central carriages on the Central line at 8.30am but in full view of everyone on the streets of london.. squashed faces, stinky bubbles… brawls in a bubble
