The logistics of that are too massive. You’re talking about rebuilding the entire freeway system. It took us 50 years to finish phase one, and that didn’t have to be a power grid and vehicle controller.
Germany might redo the autobahn that way. Japan might be able to do it too. In America it’s a non-starter, by the time the project got 25% done the tech would have gone through 4 generations and the stuff we’d be laying down would be useless.
Smart cars are coming, and they’re coming fast. Smart roads are not.

Nahh, not the entire freeway system. the hyperloop would run from downtown to downtown (theoretically) and the local commuting would go over the same old roads.
So, just the long distance jumps on a separate line. You could still drive it on the interstate, it would just take longer.
