Why focus on houses? SUVs drive into ground level shops and restaurants every single day. Places which tend to exists at ground level for accessibility reasons, and contain much more people than your average house. https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/driver-crashes-through-gas-station-store-ditches-suv-and-runs-away https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/driver-crashes-through-gas-... https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/car-into-kohls https://www.fox35orlando.com/news/car-into-kohls https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/vehicle-careens-into-burbank-storefront-after-two-car-crash/ https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/vehicle-careens-into... https://turnto10.com/amp/news/local/massachusetts-wrentham-village-premium-outlets-car-suv-into-nike-store-crash-injuries-may-20-2022 https://turnto10.com/amp/news/local/massachusetts-wrentham-v... https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/video-shows-suv-crashing-into-store-hitting-florida-man-on-beer-run/2709708/ https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/video-shows-suv-crashing... https://abcnews.go.com/US/dead-hospitalized-car-plows-dc-restaurant-lunchtime-police/story?id=83394597 https://abcnews.go.com/US/dead-hospitalized-car-plows-dc-res... https://www.gainsberglaw.com/blog/cars-crash-into-buildings-more-often-than-you-might-think/ https://www.gainsberglaw.com/blog/cars-crash-into-buildings-... I could find thousands of these. An airplane falling from the sky is far less likely to hit anyone than a car suddenly accelerating into a store because the driver is flooring the accelerator instead of the brake. These incidents are so common that they have an extensive wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration You can find some numbers at https://www.storefrontsafety.org/statistics.html https://www.storefrontsafety.org/statistics.html They claim this happens around 60 times a day.

And you think that having the same amount of air taxies in the air that. SUVs on the street would still make the SUVs look bad? Again at least with streets I know that an SUV will only crash close to streets with an air taxi it could crash everywhere. Kindergarden? Yes. Can we protect a kindergarden from an accidental SUV acceleration? Of course we can. Easy.

Yes of course, per passenger mile SUVs are far more likely to drive into a building than an air taxi is to fall out of the sky. > Can we protect a kindergarden from an accidental SUV acceleration? Of course we can. Easy. But we don’t.
