This is why we’ll never have our own flying cars.

LOL!

Can you imagine a little old lady going 150mph in a 300mph zone?

Exactly. I first remember seeing the flying car stuff on the covers of Popular Mechanics, etc, when I was a kid in the 1950's. I somehow recognized even then that having many thousands of doofus non-pilots flying to the city for work each morning was a recipe for dozens and dozens of daily crashes and disasters. It's one of those blue sky ideas that refuses to die, and is totally impractical.
