40,000 deaths, sure, but flying cars would certainly be going faster, and well, they are in the air, the danger is at least an order of magnitude greater. And that doesn't factor in the people on the ground underneath these vehicles. The vast majority of the time when a car has a mechanical or electrical difficulty, the driver simply pulls over to the side of the road. Such a difficulty in the air is suddenly a life-or-death situation. Just look at some of the crappy, barely running autos on the road and then imagine them flying above your house.
