		He wants Orange County to adopt what he calls Personal Rapid Transit, a system of small, light cars that transport people on an elevated rail system.
		Personal rapid transit (PRT), also called personal automated transport (PAT), is a category of proposed public transportation systems designed to offer automated on-demand non-stop transportation, usually targeted at urban use, on a network of specially-built guideways.
		PRT is one of a number of schemes being proposed to solve urban traffic problems, with competitors including light rail, monorail, modern trams, bus rapid transit, guided busways and conceptual systems such as "driverless car" systems and auxiliary wire guidance for private motor vehicles.

		Personal rapid transit, or PRT is a transport method that offers on-demand non-stop transportation from any point on a specially built network to any other point on that network.
		In transit planning with the above assumptions, if PRT is built in a high density corridor, it is less efficient than trains, and in a low density corridor, it is less efficient than a bus line or automobile, especially since the capital costs of streets are already sunk.
		Since the market in rapid transit has a limited (government) budget in each city, and existing options are the best-funded, existing options and organizations tend to win political battles.

		Cabinentaxi development created three PRT systems in one, an over running version (vehicle supported by guideway), an under running version (suspended under guideway), and a combination of both, doubling route capacity.
		Cabinentaxi's over-and-under beam was a major advantage over competitors, as the a single-beam system was specified, and "Cabintaxi" [Anglicized spelling?] was the only installation-ready technology in the world capable of bi-directional operation on a single beam.
		Unfortunately, Cabinentaxi was planned to be installed in Hamburg during the same time, and it appeared the schedules for Detroit and Hamburg would overlap.

	Self Personal Development
		Unlike traditional theories of personality which have tended to be somewhat metaphysical, seeking to understand personality in a vacuum, Dr. L'Abate's theory is firmly rooted in the social and existential exigencies of everyday life as experienced within the five fundamental contexts of home, work, leisure, the marketplace (grocery shopping, barbershops, malls, etc.), and in transit.
		At the heart of the theory is the conviction that the ability to love and to negotiate are the sine qua non of personal competence, with the family as the major determinant of both.

		Personal rapid transit ('''PRT''') is a transport method that offers on-demand non-stop transportation between any two points on a network of specially built guideways.
