Totally wild. Thanks to a reader for sending. The reader writes:
“This was from Friday evening…maybe after 7 or 7:30 in front of Staples.”
Welcome to the future.

That looks like a University of Michigan car… anyone know?
huh? What the hell is that? looks too small to fit, you know, a person. Unless said person was laying down?
I give that thing a life expectancy of about two weeks in Columbia Heights before it’s crushed like a bug. How the hell are you supposed to see it from inside another car? There is no way that is street legal.
University of Michigan car? How can you tell, did it come in last in some kind of solar car race?
Jamie: Visibility does not matter. Most folks don’t drive with eyes open anymore.
Only a matter of time before some kid comes by and knocks it over. Or takes it for a joyride down 4th street.
Rad, but how on earth does a normal-sized human fit into that? It looks like you’d have to be jockey-sized to drive it.
I can’t tell from the photo – is it a three wheeler?
How do you get inside? Teleport?
Oh, and it is 3 wheels, you can see two in the front.
How the hell do you get in/out? Climb in through the top?
the car is not flying. ergo, this is not the future.
7:30?? I bet the driver was desperate to get home before dark so they wouldn’t have to push it the rest of the way.
This may be the car in the center of the pic. It was the winner of the Dell-Winston Solar car race….

Well played Anon 9:04.
