Conventional Cars use CarFerry Vehicles and SuperWay System for Area-Wide Travel

Roam has designed and patented CarFerry vehicle for both the smaller MicroWay and the full-size MegaWay SuperWay guideways. Roam’s CarFerry vehicles move ordinary automobiles—with their drivers and passengers still inside—both within urban areas and cross-country.

Drivers drive their cars onto the CarFerry where it is locked in place. CarFerries may be used in: coupled car liner commuter trains, in 120-mph cross-country MegaWay trains, or as automated single CarFerry vehicles. In single ferry use, a driver selects the destination exit by use of a small control panel mounted inside the windshield, or can simply push the Next Exit button on the panel as they approach their destination.

Conventional cars can also use the high-speed, automated SuperWay system for area-wide travel without any car modifications, other than placement of a toll-tag type device with a keyboard in the car windshield. Drivers travel non-stop at high-speed in their own cars throughout the area, while toll and/or power use is automatically charged via monthly billing.
