There is absolutely no way we're anywhere close to fully autonomous self flying cars. So far there hasn't been a real successful self driving car either, just buggy demos that corporations claimed worked. Flying cars would have to have special training and much much much much much (x20 more) regulation. I don't trust over half the dumb shits in a 4 wheeled car. And my job requires me to drive all over the state. I have to avoid dying in a wreck at least 2-3 times a week from cars, trucks, SUVs, and semis. I DO NOT want those idiots flying anywhere near me or around me because they will cause deaths due to their indifference. I can't just slam on the brakes and stop due to an impatient retard in the air. I don't want 20 year old zoomers looking at tiktok while sharing airspace with me. Flying cars are a pipe dream and it's mostly because people are stupid and can't control themselves and believe they'll die if they don't beat that car by 0.002 seconds.
