Most carrier-based airplanes have folding wings, and there have been a few cases where pilots tried taking off with the wings folded. I believe there was a case at Naples of an F8 Crusader, one of the hottest in its day, which got airborne with the wings folded and made it back to the runway. Of course, the 'Sader's wings only folded in the outboard sections.
If this "flying car" makes it to the market, I will bet it will be only a matter of time until some "driver" tries the same stunt.
