Wireless Technologies in Mass Transit for Convenience and Safety
Modern Mass Transit is making it easier for commuters, especially with the most recent inter connecting wireless technologies. Many buses, commuter trains, shuttles and even trolley cars will have WiFi wireless computer access so nobody has gone out of touch during the travel time. That is being done now in Baltimore to NY trains and in Sacramento to San Francisco Trains because of Amtrak. After all we now have WiFi hotspots at McDonalds, Kinko's, Book Stores, Starbucks, Airports and hotel lobbies already.

By having these amenities we are able to get visitors to stay out of these cars and revel in the commute and or have a high speed train on the next trip; not forgetting save the gasoline which is approaching $3.00 per gallon. Once the system is built the operational costs are relatively low considering the costs of expanding airports which generally have cyclical trends during boom and bust years and thus hard to manage your ROI, with gates becoming empty and then new gates which should be built-in the up cycle. One only must follow the sector rotations of the airline industry and vacation through the California desert and appearance at Vast amounts of dollars of Airliners sitting hibernated which might never be used again. Between the cutthroat price wars, Bankruptcy tactics and today era of International Terrorism we need to rethink our transportation technique to include other redundancy methods, that may deliver the speed and comfort that people use to have in Commercial Aviation.

We have only a couple Nationwide Bus Companies that deliver people across the country. We need to insure buses are safe also in the era of International Terrorism and at exactly the same time we must increase usage and ridership. New interconnected wireless technologies can perform both. Since you are already on the Internet you can send video feed back again to the command and control for the mass transit system and constantly monitor.

Providing amenities to commuters and safety as well provides riders back and let's face it no-one wants to pay $85.00 every week to fill up their SUV with gasoline. Now could be here to coax the general public back again to the mass transit systems we've already create and enhance the economies of scale to create those old embellished proformas used to float the bond measure possible. Can technology really do all that? Perhaps it can. Think about it.
