Flying cars could soon become a reality

Flying cars, long a staple of science fiction, may soon become reality. Some companies have already flown prototypes, which are likely to be a cross between airplanes and helicopters. While personal flying cars face cost barriers, rideshare aerial taxis may become common in 10-20 years. Challenges include safety testing, FAA regulations, and improving battery efficiency to extend flight times beyond the current 20-30 minute limit.
