I was biking along the river trail today and saw this guy drive right into the river and start chugging upstream. I called out to ask him what it's called and he just shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't know.

You don't see a lot of amphibious cars in the US but they seem to be more popular in the UK and Europe.... as long as there aren't too many waves.... 🏎️🌊😬

Also, as long as you're not in a hurry. This thing was at full speed and was probably cruising at about 2 knots.

Yeah, they are usually quite slow when in boat mode. But they still enable you to cross a (not too fast flowing) river even when there is no bridge.
