So here's the idea. Start off by using a bus that is a hybrid or all-electric. Every bus serving as public transit could include a treadmill. This device would be engineered in such a way that it would store the energy generated by the user in some sort of storage unit, like battery cells. Access to the treadmill would require a transit user card. The more the rider uses the treadmill, the more energy credits she/he would gain toward future bus fares since their efforts would cut fuel costs. Also, this idea would contribute to having a healthier population. Well, there you have it. Maybe someone else has thought of this and I have not found it yet. The end.
