      The sky is huge. In theory you should be able to avoid most crashes just by separation rules which can be automated. I didn’t make this up, it’s literally a thing that exists called Big Sky Theory.

      The cars are autonomous, we need them because people can’t even manage a zip merge.

        So the flying vehicles that apparently crashed into each other of their own accord are safer than cars? Really?

        Know what can be automated a lot easier than cars or planes, and can carry orders of magnitude more people with much less fuel usage? Fucking trains.
