More than half of drivers would prefer to travel in a FLYING CAR than a driverless vehicle

In tens years, our roads could be covered in self-driving cars. Hundreds of companies are working towards the technology, intending to give us more time to dedicate our attention to other things. But a new study shows many motorists do not plan on investing in the technology, and would even prefer to travel in a flying car rather than a driverless vehicle. The survey found 57 per cent of UK drivers would opt for a hovering car over a self-driving car like Google's autonomous vehicle (pictured). The idea of a flying car was most popular with 18-24-year-olds, with 60.3 per cent saying that they would rather take to the skies than surrender control of the driving to an on-board computer.
