This is cool, don't get me wrong. It's just that, well, it makes me a bit dizzy seeing what the assholes here in LA will be driving next year. Good-bye Hummers, hello Terrafugias cutting me off in traffic. It's like seeing the future!

Disclaimer: I'm sure that some nice people will drive the thing, too. Probably, I'd bet, up to 2% of the driver-pilots.
