I'd describe the Vegas loop as two, one lane tunnels rather than a two lane road. It's a minor but important distinction, two lane roads have a lot of extra room to maneuver, while the Vegas loop will probably get very entertaining if one of those Teslas break down, especially if say... one catches fire.
Of course, what will be really fun if there's a mid tunnel fire is that the ventilation system is just "blow air from one station to the next." So one station has to get burning fumes and heat of a burning car... as well as everyone in the tunnel downwind of the fire.
