      Yes the technology is called maglev and they use it for trains to make them go very fast. So theorectically you could make roads magnetic but they only hover a small amount. This kind of technology would work best for mass transit so you could “fly” people between major cities fast then use autonomous vehicles to take them the rest of the way home
