#uncontrolled/no barrier/very slow: sleep; death; tongue frozen to lamppost

[sufficientlylargen]

I'm not sure "haptic feedback" is the right term here, since trains do definitely provide haptic feedback (you can feel them rumbling over bumps, you can feel the acceleration as they turn, you can crack open a window and feel the air rushing by). Maybe a better axis is whether or not you can control its movement while riding in/on it? That would give us:

A. Controlled/Barrier/Fast: Car, aircraft, train (but only if you're driving)

B. Controlled/Barrier/Slow: Golf cart, forklift, cruise ship (pilot), anything from A that's not working very well.

C. Uncontrolled/Barrier/Fast: Space station, spacecraft reentry capsule, house picked up by a tornado à la Wizard of Oz, falling to your death from a very great height while in a large hamster ball, anything from A if you're a passenger or the brakes don't work.

D. Uncontrolled/Barrier/Slow: Baby carriage, elevator, cruise ship (passenger), trapped in a large hamster ball floating on lazy river, house picked up by tornado à la Wizard of Oz and then deposited in a swamp where it is now very slowly sinking, space station where you redefine your frame of reference to provide yourself with constant zero speed, also anything else from C where you redefine your frame of reference to keep your velocity constant.

E. Controlled/No Barrier/Fast: Motorcycle, jetski, jetpack, speeder bike in the forests of Endor, being Superman and/or The Flash.

F. Controlled/No Barrier/Slow: Bicycle, segway, going for a walk, horse (skilled rider).

G. Uncontrolled/No Barrier/Fast: Being a passenger on anything from E, (including riding Superman and/or The Flash), fired out of a cannon, riding on top of anything from A, falling to your death from a very great height when you forgot your large hamster ball, spacecraft reentry capsule whose occupants are about to have a Bad Day™, typical planet.

H. Uncontrolled/No Barrier/Slow: Moving sidewalk in airport, parachute, passenger on any of F, horse (unskilled rider), lazy river (no hamster ball), moose, being Boromir's corpse floating down a river with the broken Horn of Gondor (no hamster ball), roomba, trying to ride a moose and ending up as a corpse floating down a river (no hamster ball, although the moose had one), freefall in extremely low gravity, Yoda's floating disc-chair from the Star Wars prequels but you don't know how to operate it and none of these button labels make any sense so it's just sort of wobbling around everywhere and it keeps bumping into things and you swear you don't even know how you turned the stupid thing on but will someone please come and turn it off before you randomly float into one of those bottomless-pit deathtrap rooms that every goddamn building around here seems to have four of, car without brakes or steering wheel or doors or roof or engine, typical planet (in no-speeding school zone).

i think probably urban highways are bad for like, human flourishing, because most people dont like them, and theyre especially a low value use of coastal areas, but *i* like them, so it irritates me when people shit on them. what if you could go FAST in a CITY?! is this not obviously great to everyone else
