bike2car foldout
Arms that stretch out and turn the motorbike into a full sized car |

windshield pulls up from side, convertable roof covers from above,
but besides the looks, the main point is that
this thing creates a safety cage around the driver that wasn't
there when you were riding the motorcycle in the suburbs.
Expanding car wheels for stability. Shrinks for parking.

Expanding car?

Uh... does it all fold down into George Jetson's briefcase when
you're done riding it, too? |

Kind of cute like an Inspector Gadget Car. I will
give a bun for your imagination.+ |

Though not well
thought out …like where do the side panels come
from
or go when you turn it back into a motorcycle? |

I wonder whether it would actually be safer, given the flimsy materials that would be needed. I guess you could have a second motorcycle behind the first, and a folding frame that brings out a seat in the middle, but even that isn't much safer. |

I think the idea of a full-spec motor car that folds away into a pocket has been done before. |

Even being more visible would be a distinct advantage. Hence I wear clown wigs on dating services. |

Look at what I just saw. [See](link) It may be a fAIke advertisement, but its still fun to know that finally somebody is thinking of it. |

I remember somewhere I wrote about an expanding car, but cannot find that one. Maybe one of you, my friends (or at least my co-bakers) can help me find it. I used jutta's view pages, with folding, car, parking - to no avail. |

Is the link it, [pashute]? |

I missed this gem the first time around. |
