Any flying car system I can conceive of would be vastly safer than the bloodbath caused by non-flying cars.

And yes, we want them. Many times faster than ground transport, safely usable by any person young or old, no congestion, frees up the ground for other uses. Feasibiliy aside, it would be undeniably utopian.



I'm assuming your hypothetical flying cars transporting people around cities are dramatically safer than today's general aviation (light aircraft piloted largely by well-trained enthusiasts and professionals in controlled environments).

If I had to bet it would be on the "driverless" car.
