This tunnel is called “Boring” because it is a drilled underground tunnel that is only enough for one car to pass.
In the uploaded video, Anidya Bakrie with the Las Vegas Ambassador @Rosanroeslani and @Sjkalla, went through the tunnel used a Tesla car.
The Vegas Loop Tunnel looks very eccentric because it is decorated with colorful lights on the edge of the tunnel.

In the upload, the driver explained that going through the tunnel only takes about 1 minute 20 seconds, while it takes up to 15 to 20 minutes if people walk, and if people take a car, it will depend on the level of congestion on the road.
At the end of his post, Anindya Bakrie also left a moral message from the story of the Vegas Loop tunnel so as not to be afraid to realize dreams as Elon Musk built the tunnel.
“Moral of the story dari Project ini adalah tetapkan mimpi besar, meski penuh kontroversi. Kemudian wujudkan mimpi itu,” Anindya Novyan Bakrie wrote the caption.
