Which is better, a Surrey Bike or an electric Pedicab?
Please explain and HONEST answers only.
Answer
You can buy one from the surrey bike company they are around $3000 dollars, and peddling your little heart out you would probably top out at around 8 miles per hour

IMAHO it would be a nightmare trying to commute to work in this get up let alone maintain one.
For around same amount of scratch you can almost have Bruce Gordon build you a first class commuter/touring frame:

What is the solution to Seattle's traffic woes?
Rainier
Seattle area commuters are looking at billions of dollars in costs to replace 520 and the Alaskan Way Viaduct. But these megaprojects don't even increase capacity. What do we do to unjam our clogged freeways? Your ideas?
Answer
1. Build a bridge or tunnel from the Seattle waterfront to the ferry terminal in Winslow.
2. Replace the Viaduct with a tunnel, which would be tied into the new bridge or tunnel to Winslow.
The technology for both projects exists today.
3. Starting in Everett, have a light rail line that when not on former railroad right of way... bike trails... would run down the center of I - 5. starting at the Everett Mall, to Alderwood Mall, Northgate Mall, utilize the downtown tunnel, stop at the Sports Arenas, South Center Mall, SeaTac Airport, SeaTac Mall,link with the Tacoma light Rail, Tacoma Mall, swing along the new Rt 16, over the new Tacoma Narrows Bridge, and stop along the way at major Park & Rides and the Kitsap Mall in Silverdale.
It could have Park & Ride lots built all along the rt.
By stopping at Malls, you have a ridership base almost instanly. These are existing major destinations with parking as well.
4. Build a light rail line along the entirety of I-405, runing a loop service in both directions, linking to the line being built now, and extend the currently built on to Auburn along 167, then tru an existing abandoned Electric Rail Interurban Tunnel, connect to the Tacoma Trolley and the Everett/Silverdale line.
5. Replace some ferry crossings to bridge or tunnel, such as Edmonds - Kingston and Southworth - Fauntleroy
The ferries are nice as a tourist thing but are really obsolete.
They are expensive, slow and infrequent.
