Stuck in a traffic jam and you just can't get to that
incredibly
important meeting?
In short... a bigass helicopter with a loadmaster, a set of
rope slings and a freecall number. Flashing light for the
car's roof, when you subscribe.
Dial, submit your credit card details, turn on the GPS
locator
on your mobile 'phone and strap yourself in.

Added a flashing light, for recognition. |

As the helicopter probably wouldn't be able to land in the
rush hour traffic, it would be tricky to complete the
complex job of attaching a decent harness to the
customer's car. A claw would be a workable alternative but
might damage the client's vehicle irreparably. Which leaves
only one sensible option: a big ass magnet. "your chopper
with be with you soon, Mr [unabubba], please remove your
spectacles and any body piercings." |

Actually, [Alter] it's hara-kiri (cutting the belly) or
more
correctly Seppuku. |
|

I was figuring the chopper just hovers, two guys
rappel to the ground beside the car, tighten the
slings around the wheels and sit on top of the car as
it's whisked away to the meeting you're afraid of
missing. |

Yeah, I know what it is, but my Japanese spelling sucks. |

Arigato gezaimas. Doushimoshito. |

A replacement driver could be exchanged for you and you chopper to the meeting. |
|

Great for "liberating" a parking space, simply attach a flashing light atop the offending vehicle, dial up and await removal and relocation to a random set of GPS coordinates of your choosing. Park and hope nobody else gets the same idea. |
|
| |
Instead of attaching lights to your car, how about attaching a strap system, so that it is just as distinctive as lights, but is also the thing that the helicopter cable latches onto? |

Gesundheit. |

I put the douche reference in there just for you,
[21]. |
|

Awesome. Bun. Plus one for the swap-drivers ideas. I'll
post a derivative idea shortly. |
|
| |
Is this only available for your car or can you have the
guy in front of you hauled away? |
|
| |
Just my luck. I subscribed, but was stuck in the tunnel when my need
arose. Bun for the idea. |
