>I'm still hung up on what happens if there's an emergency on board? Yes, bathroom related would be one, but what about something like a heart attack? Are there any other forms of mass transit that don't allow for an emergency stop or at least the possibility of gaining reasonable assistance from another person on board?
Well, how it's different from a regular high speed train? (Besides reaching it's destination much much faster?) Where would a regular high speed train do an emegergency stop?
Other methods could be even worse, despite far more popular. A taxi in a traffic jam for one. You'd probably need more than 15 minutes to get to a hospital.
