Imagine the most middle of the road (metaphorically not literally) driver you can. Now imagine handing them the keys to a <150mph vehicle with the ability to go vertically. How do you think that will go? And what do you think about handing the keys to not just them, but the other 50% of people that are dumber than this imaginary midwit.
Now try and work out what will happen to your driving insurance, or your house insurance if you live near a road when these imaginary people have flying cars.
The phrase “You can make anything idiot proof, the world will just make a better idiot.”
I mean obviously the only way flying cars ever work is if they fly themselves. Even then they’re still a terrible idea though and would be super duper not eco friendly.
