A completely agree. At a minimum, I am guessing that a ballistic parachute will be required for certification in most countries. They may even require a mechanism that allows the pilot to have some control over the deployed chute. Other safety measures, such as a redundant backup battery system may also be required. I could imagine even more safety measures for flying cars that are used for compensation or hire (e.g. taxi services.)
