    If you can get it taxed, insured, and licensed… However I would think if you were driving/flying this on the roads, the skirts are only going to last a week or two at the most!

    Thinking about the safety issues, I doubt it would be road legal!

    Probably not road legal. Hovercraft steering can’t be controlled precisely enough to ‘drive’ the vehicle on public roadways
