Yeah, that's what we really need... a FLYING car so that the already distracted idiots drivers can now crash their cars into trees, power lines, tall buildings and bridges and rain their crap down on unsuspecting "land-bound" drivers.

Maybe if they equip these flying cars with a "one-way" switch that will engage at some point and just take the driver straight up...NON-STOP!

Wait...maybe they can be the first to put a car into orbit?

Now there's another "genius" idea!!!

I am a legend in my own mind!

That thing doesn't look anything like a "car." More like a flying trampoline.

looks like a drone to me

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

I wonder if you could "legally" fish over the canal in that thing?
I believe the rules are no BOAT fishing in the canal...

......it finally happened, there are no more secret spots

I believe it would be target practice with guys on both sides trying to snag you...

However, if you rigged it right you could "collect" a lot of free fishing lures.
