That is just a lawsuit or murder charge waiting to happen.

Hmmmmmm ... ... ... I used to drive go-karts competitively, and "Handles like a go-kart" is seriously scary.

Oh goodness, what a failure. Wait until some pedestrian gets their head lopped off.

In part of the video, the tail rotor is turning counterclockwise (as seen from the left side), and later the tail rotor is turning clockwise (as seen from the left side).
Also the tail rotor seems to be turning at different speeds, somtimes very slowly, although this could be due to the effect of slow-motion video.

From what I’ve seen, the best way forward for “flying cars” that I’ve seen so far are those cylindrical propellers. They look almost like a small paddlewheel, only the vanes are movable. The vehicles I’ve seen with them mount four of these propellers, one at each corner. There are no exposed blade ends whirling around, so it’s not going to take someone’s head off if they’re inattentive.
This thing looks fun, but it’s really just a helicopter that can drive itself to the helipad. The “car” aspect is an afterthought.

I want one, but one built by, say, Honda. Something that will stay in the air when you want it to.

It’s the difference in frame speed vs eye speed.
It happens is Westerns when they show wagon, buggy and stage coach wheels seeming to turn backwards............

Since there’s no traffic congestion anymore, this isn’t much needed.

Stage coach wheels did the same trick in old Westerns.

Easily solved by placing placards or stickers on the vehicle. It’s not my fault they didn’t see/read/observe the warning.
