URBAN TRANSPORT PODS

The people living in Milton Keynes, a town about 70 kilometres northwest of London, have been introduced to a new transport experience when they use'pods' to travel on certain routes.

The pods are a kind of driverless cars which travel at 19km/h and are able to transport two people and their luggage. There is a touchscreen in the windshield of the pods where passengers select their terminal. During the trip they can also read the news, check e-mails or play video games on the screen. Powered by electric motors, the pods have ultrasonic sensors and a GPS system that help themselves know where they are go?ng and how to avoid obstacles along the way. People can use a smartphone app to hail a pod in :ne street.

Do you think this way of transport will appear in cities in Viet Nam soon?
