I didn't t read the article (of course), but I hope flying cars aren't anywhere near to be available to consumers. Many drivers are barely able to drive correctly withouth killing themselves (and/or anybody else) on a 1D path drawn on a 2D surface. IMHO, giving anyone the possibility to "drive" in a 3D space is a recipe for disaster.
Every time someone mentions flying cars this is the only thought that matters to me.
"yes let's add a THIRD dimension for people to be idiots in"
There's no way you could get me into a flying car until they've been around for decades, and automated with a safety record better than commercial airlines.
Standing ovation
