I never stopped dreaming about flying cars, I just think it's not gonna happen because a crash would easily kill people just sitting in their homes.

I am grateful everyday that cars cannot fly.

Helicopters exist, they are expensive, loud, require pilot training and skill, and still crash sometimes.

Compared to aviation, road vehicles have virtually no structured regulations.

Even road rules are considered optional by many drivers. Lots of people drive without a licence.
