Ironic choice of words. The winding road system adds distance to your commute, but a windy airspace adds air-miles to your commute.
That is, a flying car doesn't travel through the same amount of air when going 1 ground mile in different directions.
- adwf 10y agoHaha, completely unintentional. Very good point though. Personally I don't think flying cars will take off (ha, done it again...) for quite some time, if only for risk reasons. Think about just how many car accidents there are every day, now imagine every accident ending with a 100m death plunge from the sky. I just can't see it going mainstream for a long time.
