Sky Soaring

One day not too long into the future everyone will get around in flying cars. It just seems logical that people will make the transition from ground to the sky. In its simplest form, we can do this, and ability is something that has pushed humans to expand and progress numerous times in the past. In addition, the practical reasons behind flying cars can simply not be ignored. Overpopulation plagues the world and everyone knows what it feels like to be stuck in traffic for hours. With flying cars, this simple problem can be avoided by merely soaring over the world. Cars can fly at different levels, like levels for express traffic and lower ones for local traffic. In addition, landing pads can be put on the rofs of tall buildings in addition to traditional street parking, meaning that parking will be easier than ever. Of course, a simple auto-hover function could also serve to keep the car suspended while a quick trip is made to the bank or to Starbucks for a frappuccino. Also, think how fun it movie car chases would be if they consisted of cars swerving around skyscrapers and mountains, with maybe the occasional hostage holding on for dear life by a ladder hanging from the flying car. And finally, with flying cars replacing the current grounded variety, car wrecks would simply be much more spectacular and fun to watch. So I’ll see you some day in the future…soaring in the sky!

(although a suspicious looking crane does appear at the edge of the video - they claim the wire is only for "insurance purposes"...)
