Bellwether Volar electric flying car

As you know, the name is Spanish for "To be volatile."

Right now they have a 50% model that can hit an altitude of 13 feet and crash into buildings at 25 MPH. They hope to have an eVTOL that can fly 135 miles in an hour (the maximum charge) in 6 years, but regulators need to figure out how to legislate something that can cause far more death and destruction than your everyday Tesla.

I cannot help but think that I am being biased here, but I think they should require training and a pilot's license.

If you will excuse me, I am not finished fixing my Camry after a human once again proved that not everyone can be trusted with 2 dimensions.

If you ain't the one in charge of flying it, you don't need the license.

The flying cars are waiting on AI software that will enable cars flocking like birds. Then it will happen.
