Magic Highway U.S.A... It doesn't get much better than this.

You've gotta see this. 1950s and 60s views of future transportation systems were so optimistic and wonderful. Sadly, few of these predictions have come true. However, I am hopeful that soon my family car will be able to separate into two pieces, allowing my wife to head to a high-rise shopping center in one direction while I head to work in another direction. Of course I'll be following color-coded highway lanes to glass tubes under the ocean on my way to my office-in-the-sky.
I love when I happen upon something on YouTube that I was not entirely aware of previously. This was part of a 1958 "Disneyland" TV episode narrated by the great Marvin Miller and directed by the legendary animator, Ward Kimball.
