Pretty baus if you tell me. But for sure they would need more "outlets" in cause multiple people need to leave at the same time.

Stuff like this is old tech in places like Tokyo. Maybe it's starting to make sense in Vancouver due to the value of land in places like DT (smaller footprint than a normal parking lot)

Why they don't have this at Aberdeen and Parker Place is beyond me. Richmond would be less of a casualty centre if they had this.

It's cool for sure. Don't think I'd wanna pay extra for this convenience (or extreme inconvenience in case of power down or some mechanical failure).
