And also you dont need to bother about pedestrians,bicycles and so on. just drive.. Then you can actually start moving at speeds above 20km/h!

High traffic arches through the city are better then low ones because the room underneath the low ones will not easlily be used for something else. Besides, I find these high ones extremely cool. :cool:

I remember my tour of Guangzhou. The elevated highways can be as high as a 10 storey building. The view from them is spectacular.. just don't look straight down :)
