This is such a common sentiment that I imagine it must have been invented here before. Consider the traffic jam. Loads of cars stopped along the road - no doubt because somewhere down the road there is a cop writing a ticket and everyone must slow to look. And you stuck behind them all.
The monster
tire Jambuster adaptation consists of huge 20 foot high transparent tires which can be inflated so as to extend out from the regular tires. Once deployed, the Jambuster allows the driver to proceed by driving over cars ahead of her. The added height and softness of the tire can compensate for cars of varying heights, one tire on and one off a car, etc. Once thru the jam the tires are deflated and the car proceeds as before.
Care must be taken when approaching bridges. Considerate drivers will equip the tires with a brush on the leading edge, to wipe off sand and gravel and avoid scratching the cars underneath.

So, nothing to do with Bigfoot opening a particularly difficult lid then? |
|

I wonder how long it takes to inflate 20 foot tall tires? |
|
| |
They have gas charges like the martian lander. They inflate in seconds. |
|
| |
They are transparent so as not to occlude the view of drivers behind / under the vehicle. |

And then grease them up and traffic would become like
blood cells. Or lubricate them enough to squirt past
eachother but not enough to lose traction on the road. |

Why not instead make wedge-shaped
cars with teflon roofs? Then, you just
built up a good turn of speed and
nudge your way *under* the car in
front. This would be fairer: the nudger
(rather than the innocent nudgee) gets
the tire marks on his roof. |

Made out of rubber from the unobtania tree, I suppose. |

Only if the unobtania tree yields teflon.
I believe that raw teflon is extracted
from the sap of trees of the genus
Cafateria. |
