In an op-ed piece in the Los Angeles Times, a University of Southern California professor touts a system she says would provide private transportation for these people, as well as cutting down on pollution and traffic. The system uses podcars---small, four-passenger cabs that travel on a monorail system and, unlike a subway line, are available on demand.
