Flying cars set to soar into the marketplace in 2011 ‎

Having seen the subtle damage that can be done by vandals to cars parked in public spaces, I'd be concerned about keeping a roadable aircraft in airworthy condition. Anyone who has done some light aircraft flying will know how closely one must attend to details. 'planes are usually kept inaccessible to the general public, partly to prevent random damage.

I'd be very concerned about parking this anywhere other than at the airport or in a garage under lock and key, which makes it much less useful than it might first appear.

Flying cars scare the bajeezus out of me. Not because I'm scared of flying or heights, I'm not and would absolutely love to have something like this.

It's the other people who would also be flying that scare me to death. It's bad enough that we deal with horrible drivers on the road, but at least they're constrained to go where the road takes them (most of the time). Once you take away the road and give these people open air, it can only end in blood and tears.

Flying cars will never hit mainstream until they are all automated and computer controlled. The only time a human should ever be in direct control would be emergency situations.
