OhGizmo!: Flying Car Takes Off

    Great, so in the middle of the night a drunk driver/flyer will take out my house because he is allowed to fly his car instead of driving on the road

    Doubt it. It requires a light sport pilot license. Pilot licenses are very difficult to get and take a lot of work and expense - unlike a driver's license. After all that hard work and money, I doubt many would want to risk that kind of license. It's just a different kind of person who usually has a pilot license. Of course that doesn't mean that it won't happen at all. It's just extremely rare and I don't see it significantly increasing the risk that you already have of being hit by a drunk flyer.

    This is not a flying car, it is a roadable aircraft.

    I never heard the Terrafugi company before but it seems that they have some interesting stuff going on especially when it has 130mph vehicle.
