  • I'm pretty sure we have regulations preventing flying vehicles from going below a floor altitude over municipal areas. Most air vehicles are too loud to fly low or land outside airport zones

    I would be surprised if this vehicle is given exception, though it'd be way cool if they solved the noise problem.

    • Oh absolutely. I'm more excited by the tech than the application. Or at least find it interesting.

  • i dont think the world is ready for that - not unless the police have them first.

    • And that's how you get kamikaze attacks on low-income neighborhoods.

    • Found the policeman who wants a free flying patrol car!

      • lol.

        no seriously - like, those scenes from the 5th element - if we dont have antigrav buoys acting as lane markers in the sky & flying police cars to enforce them, then allowing the public (well, the uber wealthy) to buy and operate flying cars is just asking for trouble.

        I give it 2 weeks before flying cars kill someone, probably an innocent bystander.
