Don't get Johny's hopes up. The major automakers have stated their position on flying cars:

My buddy and I once talked about how messed up a whole city can get if all bridges were taken down at the same time. Surrey bridges, lions gate, second narrows, etc.

Can you imagine? We would have to quit jobs, rely on ferries, etc. Could cause a mini recession vancouver bound if that were to happen

It was some homeless people living under the bridge, apparently....

http://watch.ctv.ca/news/latest/brid...ed/#clip130920

Figures... break into an area you're not supposed to be in... then light a fire, burn down the bridge that 80,000 vehicles use every day... nah, we don't need to do anything about the homeless problem in Metro Vancouver, it's fine... they just FUCKING RUIN EVERYTHING AROUND US INSTEAD!!!

Fucking pieces of lowlife shit-for-brains.

I use that bridge every day... thankfully, against traffic... so getting to work might not be too bad over the Port Mann at 6am... but getting home to Burnaby at 3pm is going to be a fucking nightmare!!

The politicians in this province are so fucked in the head, it's not funny.

BTW johny, the Patullo is way too small for big trucks... they should be using other bridges, not it. Ever since the Highways dept shut down the scale at the south end, it's been a truck free-for-all. Another dumb idea by the transportation minister....

I lost a good friend and co-worker thanks to the Patullo... his wife got hit by a car that crossed the median, head on... instantly killed. He then took his own life because he couldn't take it anymore...

was it the part that she said, "homeless are known to live under the bridge, so police have begun their questioning with them" ?? I dont think that means. it was homeless. head out of ass much?

thats one way of going about it. strip people of their freedoms and rights. i think it would be easier if you just bombed one side of the river and killed everyone.

watch games on TV or live in Vancouver. go to the movies in your own city. take ferries Fri - sun. or leave before / after commuting hours.

no. companies / businesses need to move out of Vancouver to where the people live.

sounds like your company should be moved to surrey. it would likely save the company money, and save a majority of the workers time. it's win win.

great start with vancouver. it's a lost cause. don't know why companys are still there when nobody can afford to live there. maybe the billions of vancouver debt would be wipped out with the bomb too.

you probably wouldn't be such a hater if you had an 8 min commute to work, and saw about 4 cars on the way total.... the joys of working and living in the same city. it makes you a nicer person.

I actually agree with Johny. The Vancouver Canucks should have an arena in each city. They should move to the customers instead of the customers moving to them. They would then play each game in a different city rotating to every city in the GVRD. If someone in lets say Mission wants to watch the game live, s/he would not be allowed to drive to Vancouver. Imagine all the traffic congestion that would create. Instead, the Canucks would go to them.

I support your idea Johny!
