Side slope vehicle and side slope road on which the side slope vehicle travels

A side fence car running on a track belongs to the field of track transportation. It is different from a train in that: 1. The train is controlled by double tracks to run in a direction, while the side fence car is controlled by a single (left) track side fence to run in a direction. The train can only turn by wheel pairs and bogies, while the side fence car can turn by using the steering knuckle and steering trapezoid of an automobile, and the turning radius is much smaller than that of the train, so it can turn flexibly on the streets of the city like an automobile. 2. The train can only rely on the track to control the running direction, while the side fence car can control the running direction by the track side fence and can switch the side fence road to the track without the side fence, and control the running direction by the steering wheel like an automobile. In this way, the side fence car can be connected to the urban highway like an automobile to realize the door-to-door track transportation between urban and rural areas, and can save 80% energy compared with road transportation. 3. The cost of the simple side fence road is low.
