The Boring Company, A Continual Track Tunnel Roadway System Conceived by Elon Musk
In December 2016, wunderkind Elon Musk mused aloud to his millions of Twitter followers that he wanted to bore a tunnel to escape the frustratingly slow traffic that was keeping him from other, much more important things. In that very moment, he conceived "The Boring Company". After just a few months, Musk revealed his high-concept model that incorporates street-level car platforms that lower into the ground and run continually along a single track, thereby alleviating the issue of traffic.
