Let's fast forward and say that flying cars become ubiquitous. There will have to be "flying lanes", so that we don't crash into each other. Or am I wrong?
@LiberalLibrarian The only way flying cars happen is if you take human operators out of the equation. You've seen how people drive. No way do you add a third dimension to their inability to pay attention. Centralized control. So yes, there will be flying lanes. :)
@ianthealy Seriously, that's what I was assuming. Everything would have to be networked.
@LiberalLibrarian I remember a book I read (don't recall which it was) where manual control of a car on public thoroughfares (flying or otherwise) was a felony.
