Unmanned bus route on glass bridge in Zhangjiajie

[TaiShang]

An unmanned bus, weighing 5.5 tons, test runs on a 430-meter-long and 6-meter-wide glass bridge hanging between two steep cliffs 300 meters above the ground in Zhangjiajie, a famous tourist destination in Central China's Hunan province, on April 24, 2019. The test run shows the first unmanned bus route in a scenic area across the country can soon be in operation. [Photo/chinanews.com]

Maybe good for elderly who cannot walk all the length. Also to demonstrate autonomous driving at such height.

Nice, shows the very high quality of Chinese made infrastructures. Meanwhile bridges in murica either collapses on their own or badly needs some upgrade, fitting for a declining hasbeen world power.
