The document explores future transportation modes, highlighting jetpacks, driverless cars, moving sidewalks, and teleportation. Jetpacks are in development for military use, while driverless cars, currently being developed by Google, are expected to be widely adopted by the early 2020s. Moving sidewalks and teleportation are also mentioned as upcoming technologies, though teleportation is still theoretical and under exploration by individual physicists.

1. Transportation of the
future
By: Kelly Jamison & Hannah Munn

2. Introduction
Transportation is always going to be changing, from the very first car to the very
first driverless cars. The world will never stop evolving and we decided to do a
topic on which the world will always need and want. Here are four new types of
transportation coming in the future...
Jetpacks
Driverless Cars
Movable Sidewalks
Teleportation

3. Jetpacks
Jetpacks have been talked about forever in movies but are just now coming out
into the real world.
Great way of transportation for the military.
Jetpacks are predicted to be in mass production.
The military was the first producer.
As of today Martin’s is the only manufacturer.
Special clearance is needed to test the jetpacks.

4. Driverless Cars
The time is coming where cars will no longer need to be driven by a human but
by mechanical engineering.
These types of cars can help lower the driving, prevent accidents, help to
transport the elderly that can no longer drive.
Google is currently working on the cars.
It is predicted that the first driverless car will be out in 2017 and that by the
early 2020s every major car company will produce similar cars.

5. Moving sidewalks
The world already has some moving sidewalks but we are working on producing
more.
Moving sidewalks would benefit the handicapped, currently injured and elderly
with transportation in public areas.
By 2030 it’s estimated that all public places will have moving sidewalks or
moving platform.
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. is one of the producers

6. Teleportation
It is not yet known when the technology will be available to the public.
Teleportation would aid in long distance relationships, as well as government
affairs.
There is no one person or company working on teleportation devices, but a
whole lot of individual physicists working on different methods.

7. Technology
Technology is always going to be changing especially transportation. The future
is changing to the present and these are just some new technologies that revolve
around the subject of transportation.
