Skycar

Moller International has developed the first and only feasible, personally affordable, personal vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicle the world has ever seen, the M400 Skycar.
From your garage to your destination, the M400 Skycar can cruise comfortably at 350+ MPH and achieve up to 28 miles per gallon. No traffic, no red lights, no speeding tickets. Just quiet direct transportation from point A to point B in a fraction of the time. Three dimensional mobility in place of two dimensional immobility.
You can view flight test videos here.
Now that’s cool…
Although it raises a lot of security and noise pollution concerns, it still is very cool…

At 350+MPH, I’m not sure if my reflexes are quick enough to avoid a lightpole or bridge.

Well you could choose to fly higher than lightpoles and bridges
Then you’d have to dodge the planes

That’s true. But it’s not only where can you buy it, but where can you fly it? Will there be a driving test that one must pass first before flying it? What kind of rules and laws must one abide while airborn? And the most important question is, where can you park that big thing?! It has to take up at lease 3 parking spots! Not cool in a city over populated.

I guess there should be some kind of test, and some new laws for it.
As for parking, well any empty roof should be a good spot

Scary thought. Old Asian women driving that thing. AAAAHHH!!! I know we shouldn’t discriminate, but they really are bad enough with 2-dimensional driving. 3-D will only confuse them (or should I say “us” although I don’t consider myself old) more.
