Boring Tunnel Will Be 2.5 to 7.5 Times Faster Than LA Commuter Traffic

The Boring Tunnel will provide transportation at 150 miles per hour. This is about triple the speed of commuter traffic on Los Angeles Highways.

The average weekday traffic on 18 different freeways across Los Angeles county ranged from 20 miles per hour to 62 miles per hour.

The Boring Tunnel will be 2.5 to 7.5 times faster.

The demo ride takes you in *same* car on road, down elevator, zips through tunnel using guide wheels, up elevator at destination & then drives on normal roads back to start

Capable of traveling safely at over 150mph. At that speed, it will feel like teleporting within a city.
