In the latest years, Internet traffic has increased at a significantly faster pace than its capacity, preventing efficient bulk data transfers such as data-center services and high-definition user-generated content applications. In this paper, we propose to take advantage of the existing worldwide road infrastructure as an offloading channel to help the legacy Internet assuage its burden. Our results suggest that piggybacking data on vehicles can easily lead to network capacity in the petabyte range.
