I agree. But Miami needs to invest in the most advanced and cost effective mass transit that is possible. And the best solution on the horizon, hands down, is @swyftcities. Born out of Google’s Project Swyft, with contracts in development around the country and the world. Modular networks of autonomous smart vehicles that bypass the traffic and obstacles on the ground. $20-25m a mile is cheap compared to existing mass transit. Can move over 2,500 people per hour each line, each way. Can be built fast. More accurately installed in cities. Start with a pilot and watch the network grow. It is like Legos. I’m working on bringing it to Miami-Dade. DM’s are open to people that want to help!
Miami urgently needs to invest in mass transit if they’re serious about becoming the next great metropolis in the country. But that clashes with the people who actually run the city because they own the political system: the big car dealers and the developers who build the infrastructure for those cars.

Major developers should pay for a next generation mobility network. Working on it and making progress. @ChariotLiving @swyftcities @WhooshTransport
Major developers should contribute to the operation, maintenance and expansion of the metrmover instead. Let's not nickel and dime people who are actually trying to use alternative modes.

Looking forward to getting people to these future stations with feeder @swyftcities @WhooshTransport networks.
BREAKING: Miami’s long-awaited Northeast Corridor rail line is now FULLY FUNDED. The $927 million project will deliver: • 13.5 miles of passenger rail • Five new stations • Service from Downtown Miami to Aventura • Stops in Wynwood, the Design District, Little Haiti, North Miami and FIU Biscayne Bay • Nearly 8,000 fewer daily car trips • Trains running by 2032 Miami isn’t just talking about transit anymore. It’s building a regional rail system.

True. You will be able to ask the Roadster to perform any of the tricks shown autonomously, as it will be sentient. Also, we will have a wild looping track (crazier even than Hot Wheels) at our Texas HQ where you can test out your Roadster.

No thrusters needed to go above the traffic. At @ChariotLiving we're separating the cabin from the car. Your chariot glides over the gridlock, docks at your building and rides right up to your floor. The real fix isn't better charging, it's not needing to own a car at all. 🚀
Tesla has one problem left to solve before total world domination And it has nothing to do with the Roadster or self-driving It's apartment charging I have half a dozen friends who bought a Tesla and loved it But every single one of them sold it and went back to gas They all live in apartments and said charging was a nightmare Sitting at a Supercharger gets old fast when you're already running late Crack that, and Tesla becomes the iPhone of cars

Big week for mobility in Miami-Dade. Public comment at the TPO Transportation Planning Council, the County Transportation Committee on delivery robots, and great conversations with city, county and state transportation leaders. Miami is ready to get creative. Conversations ahead. #Miami #Mobility

No thrusters needed to fly over cars here.
Picture this on Miami's busiest streets: smart vehicles gliding above the traffic, on demand, door-to-door. That's Swyft Cities' Whoosh, a grade-separated network that adds capacity without taking a single lane. One Seat to Anywhere. #Whoosh #Miami #FutureOfMobility

Spoke today at the Miami-Dade Transportation Committee on new rules for delivery robots. Great to meet the Serve Robotics team. My ask: think bigger. Delivery bots could ride Whoosh above the street for the long stretch, saving time and battery and reaching much farther. #Miami #Robotics

People love Miami. The number one problem is traffic. Today at the Miami-Dade TPO I shared that the solution we've been waiting for is here: Swyft Cities' Whoosh, born at Google, with a full-scale proving ground starting in December. Thank you for hearing me. More conversations ahead. #Miami #Mobility

Flu game reference 🏀🔥💯
Now we get a denial, which you'd expect after the campaign's lawyers show up with angry phone calls referencing HIPAA and NDA's, and who knows what's true. All I can say is it's incredibly peculiar that somebody would disappear for two weeks in the middle of a $200 million Senate campaign and have zero ability to account for his whereabouts. "I had the flu" is an insult to everyone. Jordan dropped 45 in the NBA Finals with the flu - this guy can't make a TikTok video? Bullshit.

Great morning at Commissioner Rosado @ralphrosado305 Miami Loop event. Inspiring to see the City planning a connected network of trails. Thank you Mayor Eileen Higgins, Mayor Daniella Levine Cava @MayorDaniella and Commissioner Raquel Regalado @RaquelRegalado for the great conversations. Walk, bike, or ride above it all. #MiamiLoop #Miami
