Flying cars are stupid.
Hey, if someone can actually do it in a way that:
- Satisfies public safety requirements
- Satisfies all legal requirements
- Restricts usage to trained pilots or autopilot
- Runs on electricity or other low/zero emission fuel source
- Lasts an appreciable amount of time before recharge
Then it may free up public roads enough to push pedestrian and bike usage while offering people a large incentive to go electric. I just don’t think the technology for personal automobile-aircraft hybrids is there yet.
I’d love to be proven wrong.
Why make one more lane bro up in the sky when we can make trains? We already have the technology to solve traffic and it DOESN’T involve making more cars, flying or otherwise. All flying cars would do to traffic is jam it up at the places where you park, and also create traffic in unplanned places like people’s attics and second floor apartments.
