Wheel troubles have already caused melt-downs of EDS test vehicles. If it should happen with passengers on board, there is virtually no chance of survival. After several conversions, a moving field of electric power is fed, in sections, into rows of overlapping coils located in the walls on each side of the U-shaped guideway, which propel and levitate the vehicles. Sections of the coils are turned on ahead of the traveling vehicle, and tuned off behind. Enormous energy waste.
Lights dim in neighborhood during test run.
That is a ratio of 100 to one 3. EDS has too many sub-systems where any imperfect performance or failure may have disastrous results 4. EDS emits dangerous electromagnetic radiation.
