flying cars will never happen like bttf shows. why expend all that money and energy on having cars travel a bit higher up on a "skyway"? Not to mention the efforts in terms of car licensing etc...
The only way it would happen would be if they were computer controlled and then, people would be a bit wary. 100 years time, maybe something for the elite.
@2010mustang1 funny when i saw this i thought it came out in the early 90s .i mean in the 80s computer graphic technology didnt advance too far so considering that it was an awsome movie with awsome graphics for the 80s
The 'flying' car in the movie is actually a full scale fiberglass replica built by Gene Winfield. He also made the police cars for the film as well as several vehicles for other movies. Robocop, Bladerunner, Man from U.N.C.L.E., just to name a few.
The end of the clip is why we'll never have flying cars. Mid-air collisions every five minutes with flaming bodies and wreckage raining down on shopping centers and schools.
The "road barriers" in the sky will have the cars in their hover force field meaning any debris will be caught. But in the future cars will be run on batteries and will be better in preventing (even when hit) crashes way before we'll establish a Sky way.
The sky is a lot larger than a road. There would be no midair collisions, unless someone with suicidal tendencies DELIBERATELY collides with another flying car.
Why? Oh and btw planes won't exist in the future if there's a skyway. Airplanes will be outfitted for interplanetary travel. The reason we need skyways is because it will get people where they are going faster and minimize traffic.
No, skyways would MAXIMIZE traffic (and accidents), because they would cram a huge number of aircraft together. Instead, with no skyways, all you'd have to do would be turn your flying car to the correct direction and fly in a straight line for the correct distance.
simple math is the answer, on a regular road way, you have just a simple x,y plane. but once flight is involved, you include that 3rd dimension which gives more freedom of movement. Also, with other scenes in the movie, it is shown that the skyway is not needed in order to maintain flight.
I know the skyway doesn't maintain flight but it keeps the cars within the barriers and prevents any debris from crashing to Earth. Your completely correct about the 3rd dimension. And Skyways will probably have 3 heights one for each atmosphere and physical high ways will still exist. Sorry I'm talking this to death but its good practice for the Future right?
Wait so if everyone in the world was flying in the sky all willy nilly without any form of organization I'm pretty sure some accidents that could of been prevented would of occured.
But then again considering Mythbusters already pointed out that personal flying transportation majiggies would have no failsafe I'll be happy with a flightless DeLorean thank you very much. :)
@DevilMaster YH I THINK THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED RANDOM ACCIDENTS THOUGH .cause imagine if loads of people bought cars and just flew them were ever they want. i agree it seemed stupid but it still kind of made sense plus more distance means more use of fuel which happened to be rubbish so it is eco friendly and everytime you drive you get rid of your rubbish aka you make your own fuel
Somebody tell those damn egghead scientists to stop trying to cure AIDS and get on with the building of flying cars already! I want my flying Delorean!
OMG sooooooo FAKE!

Dear All,
I have some questions about psychology:
(1) Why do we want to fly high?
(2) Why do want to build a flying car?
(3) Why do we like to imagine to drive a flying car? (eg. the flying car in moive "Back To The Future")
(4) If Flying Simulator has a "Flying Ford Family Car" to pilot, will this attractive to players?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

Oh, by the way, the end of this clip is why we'll never have SKYWAYS. Forcing an aircraft to move as if it was a car on a road is retarded.
