Sparrow Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) is a long bandied about, but oft dismissed form of transportation. Many potential systems are out there, but only a few sad, disappointing examples are in operation across the globe. The promise of mass-transit service with car-like privacy is grand. Why has PRT been so slow to gain traction? Will the driverless car usher in the age of PRT? After all, why would any average citizen need to own a car any longer (and pay for gas, insurance, maintenance, etc.) if a fleet of autonomous taxis is driving every street in America? Will PRT become the future or will it always remain a vision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tower26 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 It is possible . Electric vehicles is on the verge of high demand . GPS , Onstar is somewhat laying the groundwork for possibilities like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
