It's a thoroughly nifty idea, but there are a few glaring problems. Such as what to do when the guy in the middle of the peloton reaches his exit. If the pods looked more like ultra low drag HPVs, they would go faster without much need to draft.

Robert name a single creature on this planet that has an axle and wheel as a part of its anatomy.
As far as entry and exit, use a hill to slow the vehicles down, where people can enter and exit from a moving sidewalk. then the vehicles go downhill to regain speed.
