Wait, how a tunnel can make a profit? Do you have to pay to have a privilege to drive through it?

Its kinda like a taxi! The tunnel has drivers and teslas that will take from one end to the other, tho there is a video on YouTube that walking the distance is faster than the tunnel…

I thought it's a tunnel that you can drive through yourself to save some time, but turns out it really is just a taxi service that can travel only through these tunnels.

Here's a video of the whole experience. I would personally just have a walk instead.

Actually not that uncommon.

You're right, for example you have to pay to use Kanmon Tunnel

I suppose. Forgot that toll roads exist which is the same idea.
