Can you just imagine trying to get all the regulatory agencies in the United States to approve that? A large law firm's dream.

The linked article referred to a "video" but never posted it. Very disappointed! 😌

As crazy as many people are in a car I shudder to think how they will act in the air.😁

Nothing new, we've been dreaming this for decades, same now as back then, still not feasible. But is has always been an amazing concept

Thanks, Doug!  The video was further down the page!  Driving on the city streets and highway with his rear beacon lights flashing!  🤔

Did y'all notice that the rear wheels appeared to be contra-rotating while in flight... 🙃

I live in Texas where driving is a mystery to most people. I sure don't want these people flying over my head.

I'll wait until Elon Musk comes out with a self-flying Tesla.

Looks like an actual “predator” drone that captured a car.

Can you imagine several thousand of them commuting home from work in Los Angeles?

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

Honestly, no I cannot so imagine. Where are they going to land other than at a small airport, which may or may not be all that close to where they actually live?

In addition, the added load on ATC would be ludicrous!
