My buddy Tom Symonds linked me up this YouTube video showing an old Disney film predicting the Future of Transportation. I know this stuff looks horribly starry-eyed and naive, but these old Disney films predicting the future are always so charming. Some of the stuff has come true. Some of it – like heated, fog-dispelling and self-illuminated road surfaces – I’d really love to see in widespread use. And some of it – a vehicle that combines police, rescue and crash removal – you almost wonder why it hasn’t happened yet.

Anyway, it’s always nice to see an optimistic vision of the future.
