We definitely have the technology to make flying cars. We have had it a long time honestly. If we can make a helicopter, we can easily make a flying car using the same tech.


Helicopter tech wouldn't get us to flying cars. You'd just have differently-shaped helicopters that don't fly as well.

The reason why we don't make flying cars is because the cons of flying cars greatly outweigh the pros.


Well, no, the reason right now is that there's no way of doing it functionally let alone affordably.

Just think about it logically for a minute. People are fucking dangerous on the road. Think about how much more dangerous they would be flying in the air. There would literally be drunk flyers flying into houses/buildings.


The same thing was said about cars, but we eventually got a handle on those.
