FLYING DRONE TAXIS ARE COMING SOONER THAN YOU THINK!

Flying drone taxis have always been a part of our favourite future oriented movies. And no doubt we want them in real life too. Well future is no far now, these flying drone taxis are expected to come to the market by the summer of this year.

Dubai's Roads and Transportation Agency has planned to begin its passenger service by the end of this summer. The passenger service will carry people by air in small drones to predetermined routes . Uber and Airbus are talking about launching flying drones for transporting cargo first, as an paving stone for carrying human beings in them. This might be the reason that the flying drones have not come up to market till now. Safety standards must have been determined for this.

The picture at the top of the post of a flying drone is Ehang 184. Ehang 184 is a 500-lb drone which can carry one passenger with a maximum weight of 220 pounds. The vehicle runs on electricity and can cover a distance of 31 miles in one charge, which is pretty good for a flying drone. The vehicle has a top speed of 100mph, which is again pretty good for travelling quickly in the crowded city of Dubai. Also the agency will be providing service for transporting donated organs between hospitals.

Sounds cool, but I've read too many science-fiction books and I would worry it wouldn't take me to my desired destination ;)
