Not sure if the wind would be able to grab a car... A car doesn't stick out that much. It's never good to stick out your head above the rest!
I wouldn't drive my Jeep on that. There is a bridge over a gorge here in Wisconsin that has "Caution: High Winds!" signs before you get there. I was driving to Chicago a couple of months back and there was a wind stoem goin on, which was doubly worse. It was okay until I passed a semi at which point I was pretty sure that the fasteners holding my hood on were going to let loose.

I guess that's what happens when you're a high profile kind of guy.

I always wondered if your fasteners were just a little loose, but now I know it was just the wind. My apologies.

Guard rails helps small cars against that.

Trucks like this are more suceptible to wind because being empty they have less weight to keep them down and even more because the drivers tend to go faster because of it. I wonder if it could be possible to build collapsible trailors...

No, just ban those trucks from the roads... This country is way too small for all those trucks!

Good. Now down just a bit.

Uhuh. Too far, back up about an inch.

Now a touch to the right.


Ahhhh. Perfect! . . . X marks the spot.


Now start digging.

Autoroutes, highways and transportation should be done underground. This way emissions could be controlled and pollutants be captured directly from the air evacuation systems stations.

Just a silly thought...
