Description

The Intelligent Transportation Network System (ITNS) is a totally new form of public transportation designed to provide a high level of service safely and reliably over an urban area of any extent in all reasonable weather conditions without the need for a driver's license, and in a way that minimizes cost, energy use, material use, land use, and pollution.

This remarkable set of attributes is achieved by stopping only at off-line stations and by using light-weight, fully automated sub-compact-auto-sized vehicles. With these physical characteristics ITNS is much more closely comparable to an expressway on which automated automobiles would operate than to conventional buses or trains with their on-line stopping and consequently large vehicles. Therefore, we now call this new system ITNS rather than High-Capacity Personal Rapid Transit, which is a designation coined over 35 years ago.
