Why make one more lane bro up in the sky when we can make trains? We already have the technology to solve traffic and it DOESN'T involve making more cars, flying or otherwise. All flying cars would do to traffic is jam it up at the places where you park, and also create traffic in unplanned places like people's attics and second floor apartments.
So, what you're saying is maybe one more lane in space then? /s
FWIW, I totally agree. It's just that I've lost hope in people after disposable single-use Li-Po battery banks. Who knows, maybe I'm wrong and the public will start to push more for public transit rather than buy the next new shiny.
I try, but it does feel kind of hopeless.
