Default Is Toyota Developing a Flying Car?



Considering "The Jetsons" laid out a flawless concept design back in the early '60s, it's hard to imagine we still don't have a proper flying car. But Toyota may just be hoping to change all that.

Baby steps, baby steps. First let's get these self driving cars having a near flawless record. Speaking of records this means compiling massive amounts of data from the black boxes, crunching it, finding weak points in them. That will take about 20 years. THEN we will see flying cars with black boxes Installed and be pilotless plane. We will see this in our lifetime.

^This,

I don't trust everyday people to pilot a plane. That's a completely different ballgame from operating a car. Automated flying, or none at all.
