Urban Snail   (+5, -1)  [vote for, against]
slow moving public transportation

The Urban Snail is a gigantic mechanical snail on wheels that rolls along vacuuming the sidewalks and using what it vacuums for fuel. It never stops but it moves slowly. If you're not particularly in a hurry, hop on. Route maps can be found in the saddlebags.

" vacuuming the sidewalks and using what it vacuums for fuel "

That's going to make for some ill-scented exhaust fumes.
