Elon Musk is launching a tunnel digging company to reduce traffic in cities

It will be the project/company that ties all his projects together.

- Tesla: At least one lane will be for self driving cars only, moving at higher speeds. Giving more reasons for people to buy Tesla and other self driving cars.

- Hyperloop: Not exactly his main focus these days, but tunneling may be an alternative to pylons even though it will be more costly.

- SpaceX: He will gain first hand experience needed for tunneling on Mars.

Seriously, can we clone Elon. I'm hoping all those kids he popped out via in vitro were actually just clones.

What law/precedents exist around underground land ownership? Do the surface owners have rights to the land below it to a determined depth?

I generally like what Elon Musk does, but this sound to me like a patch for the cities that works extraordinarily well with his other business Tesla. What we need is more and more sustainable public transportation. Trains, subways, etc that can last 40-60 years without replacement.

Tesla cars "might be" eco-friendly but building cars, batteries, etc is a pretty wasteful thing if you have to replace your car in less than 10 years... Just wait few years until new cars start having forced system updates that block your car and ask for a replacement.

This could also be a stepping stone to reducing Hyperloop tunneling costs

Now I just can't stop thinking about the comparison between humans and ants.

Roads for ants. Flying cars will happen first.
