While sitting in a traffic jam, Elon Musk had a brilliant idea: Why not bypass city traffic through a series of underground tunnels?

This demonstration video by Elon Musk's latest ventrure, "The Boring Company" demonstrates the idea to relieve congestion in cities once and for all.  The plan is to build a network of underground tunnels to shuttle cars on electric sleds at speeds of up to 124 MPH.
As of February 2017, the company has begun digging a 30 foot wide, 50 foot long, and 15 foot deep "test trench" on the premises of SpaceX's offices in Los Angeles. According to Musk himself, the company's goal is to enhance tunneling speed enough such that establishing an underground network of tunnels is financially feasible. "If you think of tunnels going 10, 20, 30 layers deep (or more), it is obvious that going 3D down will encompass the needs of any city’s transport of arbitrary size." Elon Musk
