The design put forward by Shenzhen Hashi Future Parking Co. Ltd is designed to travel on current roads at speeds of up to 60Km/h carrying 1200-1400 passengers at a time, that would be otherwise blocking the roads in cars.
Despite rumors to the contrary the solar/electric hybrid powered traffic straddler does exactly what it says on the tin straddling traffic rather than swallowing up and carrying cars. Thus allowing the bus and passengers to glide 4-4.5 meters above the road allowing cars to either pass underneath unhindered or allow drivers to scowl at the lucky passengers passing over a rush hour traffic jam.
