The recent development of the M200G, a specially designed flying saucer' type vehicle which is set to revolutionise car travel across the globe, poses some difficult questions about what the car crash injuries of the future might be.
Even though the vehicle is currently only able to hover at a maximum of 10ft off the ground, because the ability to hover at a greater height would necessitate drivers having a pilot's license, it does not take a rocket scientist to understand that travelling at such elevation could cause more severe car crash injuries than those currently resulting from standard land-going vehicles.
In his enthusiasm, the creator of the M200G clearly doesn't share these reservations about the potential the vehicle has for causing devastating car crash injuries, "We have this wonderful natural resource above us. Look at the sky above us how many aircraft do you see? It's a great space that is not being utilised. That is what we plan to use. Cars are finished as a means of getting around. It's only a matter of time."
Whether we will be seeing Jetson style superhighways full of these hovering vehicles, though, is still open to debate. Such high density traffic of these flying saucer' vehicles would surely have the effect of causing more serious car crash injuries than those which are common on today's roads. There is always a chance that no win, no fee solicitors across the UK could be inundated with serious personal injury claims of a much more severe nature than the most prevalent of this age the whiplash claim.
Creator of the new car, Dr Paul Moller, envisages that before the car goes into mass-production it may first find niche markets such as the agricultural and military sectors, "It's not a hovercraft, although its operation is just as easy. You can speed over rocks, swampland, fences, or log infested waterways with ease because you're not limited by the surface.
"The electronics keep the craft stabilized at no more than 10 feet altitude, which places the craft within ground effect where extra lift is obtained from operating near the ground. This lets you glide over terrain at 50mph that would stop most other vehicles."
Yet the M200G is being feted as just a precursor to another, even more sophisticated, vehicle; the M400 is the hovering vehicle the science-fiction design experts envisage being a commercial success. At the moment, it is being offered for sale in various guises and comes with a top price of one million US dollars for preproduction orders.
Informally known as the Skycar, it certainly raises some interesting questions about whether this transport of the future will result in a car crash injury nightmare.
It is predicted the vehicle will reach speeds of around 400mph, be able to reach heights of 6000ft within a minute and be ready for showrooms by the year 2013.
When that day does finally arrive, let's just hope that accident compensation solicitors don't find themselves inundated with claims for car crash injuries that are much graver than the very serious ones they already deal with in this age of personal vehicle transport.
