    I sure hope that’s not true. Cars already are a nightmare of inefficiency and should ultimately be reserved to some very specific usecases – giving access so flying pods to everyone is possibly the worst possible method of transportation ever thought of.

    Not only for the environment, as those would be mighty inefficient, but also for safety; people love clowning on Boeing but letting the auto industry make aircrafts will give us a lot more to be anxious about.

    Also, when a car fails, or a conductor has an emergency, in most cases the car just stops, we don’t end up with a ton of steel tumbling down at 200km/h on buildings, random people and other flying vehicles
