As far as my own personal noise for a car I'd like the theme from "Jaws". Or maybe "Mr. Roboto" by Styx. Unless I'm traveling through Texas. Then I'll play "It's Raining Men" by The Weather Girls. ;) A self-fulfilling prophecy! As far as my own personal noise for a car I'd like the theme from “Jaws”. Or maybe “Mr. Roboto” by Styx.

The idea is that demand would be distributed among the stations, lowering (though probably not eliminating) the chances that a station would be overrun by people wanting to ride, or by vehicles dropping people off. A city network would need to be designed so that high demand stations would be equipped with more berths.
