RE: A hover backpack can now glide you over streets

Failure mechanisms will be really important to consider (see Amazon self-destructing drone mechanism). Also, given how many horrible drivers there are, I'm quite sure there would be an equal proportion of horrible flyers, with much higher potential for fatality. Seems like an interesting concept but I'm not sure the added complexity/cost is worth the marginal improvement compared to available methods. Execution will be key, as always.
