Stuck in morning traffic and all you can do is honk your horn aggressively?

That may soon be a thing of the past if AeroMobil has anything to say about it.

The company says it hopes its flying car will hit the skies by 2017.

Speaking at SXSW in Austin Texas, AeroMobil CEO Juraj Vaculik argued that his flying car is more than just a prototype.

AeroMobile 3.0, also called the Flying Roadster, runs on regular petrol, can sit two people and can be used on the road and fit into a car space.

It also has the capabilities of taking off and landing on grass or any paved surface that is a few hundred metres long.
