Why would you assume these would be driven? This looks like a Hollywood special effect reel from the 1950s. We are close to having fully autonomous vehicles already. Any practical application of this couldn’t happen for at least another 20years. If we are still driving our own vehicles by then we are all pretty fucked already.
Comment on Watch: A real-life flying car takes to the skies

Please no flying cars. Please no. The jetsons made it look cool, but that was a cartoon made in the days before 9/11 and cell phones happened.
Now imagine some distracted driver, watching a tiktok while driving, and oops, they did another 9/11.
Now imagine that happens every week. Not because of terrorists, but because of idiots! WE HAVE A LOT OF IDIOTS IN THIS COUNTRY!!!
…please no.

Cars crash into buildings all the time. Even if you took the largest consumer car and “drove” it as fast as possible into the side of a skyscraper, you wouldn’t be able to cause anything close to another 9/11.
That said, these are terrible for other reasons.
