This idea is in impressive and just amazing how our technology and engineering is just betters by the years. This areo-moblie will be the solution of hectic traffic, car accidents and more. I love the fact that it can travel for 900 miles and 3 hours in the air, in just one hour you can get so far and get to so many places. I know that Google has been working on these flying cars for years and they are close on making it happen and providing to the people.
