If only there was some other way for people to get around the city that had much lower risk of accidents that the government could invest in instead of roads...
Private helicopters?
Not sure those have a lower risk of accidents 😅
Although you would probably get where you're going 12x faster, so maybe about even 😅
Perfect! Let's hope someone campaigns on allowing people to drive helicopters on a standard driver licence, which should help the economy!
Image the productivity boost!
