One thing I have not heard discussed anywhere about flying cars and the like is what happens in the event of an engine/motor/power failure.
To be certified all airplanes and helicopters have to be able to make a safe landing in the event of an engine failure. What happens when a tiny electrical gremlin rears its ugly head and the power cuts out? I've had my laptop simply shut down for no explained reason. Is there a method for a safe return to the earth? I wouldn't want to be the passenger heading to the ground like a streamlined anvil when that happens.
