If there are too many flying cars, there will be traffic jams in the sky. Some means of transport will not be convenient in bad weather (e.g.jet pack). Future means of transport may use a lot of fuel which will make pollution worse. 2&3: Open answers from Ss. 2. Key: 1. F 2. O 3. F 4. O 5. O Activity 3 3a. Key: flyingcar driverless car
