Elon doesn’t have a clue.

Last week we told you about the tunnels that Elon Musk wanted to build to get rid of traffic in LA. Well Musk actually began testing his hypothesis this past week on Space X properties.

Elon Musk actually Tweeted this in December and Marcus (at the time, when Producer Bill put this toward him as a feature on the show) said that Elon was joking. How wrong was he! 😉

 

Following through with his crazy promises (Because Money) Musk actually admitted:

“We have no idea what we’re doing—I want to be clear about that,” Musk said at a SpaceX hyperloop design competition this past Sunday.
On Sunday Musk hypothesised his tunnel idea on the concept of “going 3D down”:

You have tall buildings, they’re all 3D, and then everyone wants to go into the building and leave the building at a same time. On a 2D road network, that obviously doesn’t work, so you have to go 3D either up or down. And I think probably down”

Environmentalists aren’t happy though with an urban planning researcher at UCLA telling WIRED,

“Our recent experience with tunnels in the US is that neighbours worry, you run up against various environmental laws, and you just never know what’s underneath the Earth.”

But Musk retorted, “better tunnelling tech improves everything: road, subway, Hyperloop.”

Oh to be a billionaire.
