More personalized transportation is already in the proposal stage for mag-lev transportation.


This SkyTran system operates with individual, two-passenger vehicles, which are propelled and suspended by a maglev system from overhead guideways.

Looks like it would be a total blast. This pod is probably made with a super light weight material and the speed would be incredible. The G-forces would play a role on how fast it would be and what that individual could handle. Then a final set speed for everyone would have to be figured out to avoid things like catastrophic collisions and road rage. However computer controlled motion and monitoring system would be in place to prevent collisions at a merge points in travel.
