Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 1491: 706

Unfortunately, no one would let Zhao Yi get in the car without any safety measures in place.

In the end, Zhao Yi and Qiu Chengwen each donned a set of safety gear, the thick protective suits even covering their faces, and once they got into the car, there was really nothing to experience.

The flying car circled slowly in the air, and the ground operators even planned to fly at a speed not exceeding thirty miles per hour.

The whole process was like riding on a merry-go-round, ascending steadily into space and then descending just as safely, and as soon as the car landed, Zhao Yi quickly removed his helmet and complained, "It would have been more fun if you’d gone up yourself, that was too boring."

"That’s exactly what I was thinking," Qiu Chengwen shook his head with some disappointment.

The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

Zhao Yi said, "Don’t worry, let’s wait for the next time. With continuous testing, in a few months, we should be able to ensure safety."

"Now that the car’s performance has met the standards, the main focus for improvements will be on ensuring safety." ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"I’m so looking forward to it!"

Qiu Chengwen sighed.

On the way back to the research base, everyone kept talking about the flying car, with Qiu Chengwen constantly talking about pre-ordering one, but his idea was not so easy to realize because the flying car was still far from hitting the market.

There are two major factors currently impeding the commercial release of the flying car.

One significant factor is approval from higher authorities. freewёbnoνel.com

Getting approval for flying cars is truly not easy since there are no relevant laws in the country yet, to say nothing of traffic management issues. Whether flying cars fall within the scope of traffic authority is a question that can be debated for a long time.

Moreover, the problem of flight paths is also an issue.

If there were only one flying car, naturally, there wouldn’t be any issues, but once they officially go on sale, there may be many flying cars on the road, and then mapping out their aerial routes would become a challenge.

All cars would fly at low altitude; they couldn’t just fly aimlessly in the air. Definite flight paths must be established.

How should the flight paths be regulated?

It’s very difficult.

This issue is the most time-consuming. Even after applying to the higher authorities, it may take a long time to resolve. To be solved within a year would be remarkable, and it might even require more time than that.

The second point is about the scrutiny of safety.

The current safety standards of flying cars are definitely not up to par. Although some designs are intended to ensure safety, no one can guarantee there won’t be any issues.

Since flying cars haven’t met the safety standards of regular cars yet, they can’t pass the safety inspection. This means that the related safety designs still need continuous upgrades, or even on the original design, there have to be many improvements and the inclusion of many devices.

It’s not even about passing the safety inspection now; even the thought of letting personnel casually test-drive is daunting. Any issue that could arise would be a major event.

The flying car could only be set aside for now, to be gradually perfected, and for the time being, it can only be used for display purposes.

When Zhao Yi and his companions returned to the research base, they were unaware that the news was already buzzing in public discourse.

Although the test site was secluded, a small town lay just ten kilometers away, where many locals captured footage of the flying car, even with clear videos.

This sparked hot debates in the media.

One particularly interesting and explosive hot topic was—

Harry Potter and Ron are lost!
