How will we move from place to place in future? Will speed and freedom always be the goal? FutureProofing examines how huge changes in mobility will alter our world. \\nFrom driverless vehicles to personal flying machines, and from new apps that can summon any transportation option necessary at an affordable price to the linkage of two cities hundreds of miles apart in journeys of just a few minutes - presenters Timandra Harkness and Leo Johnson discover how changes in the ways we move around might alter our understanding of freedom, change cultures, and transform economies in future. \\nFutureProofing travels to Ferrari's HQ to drive the latest model and hear how this could be the real future for the car; meets the men planning to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco by Hyperloop technology which achieves speeds of up to 750 mph; and discovers how the city of Helsinki is about to totally revolutionise transport for everyone. And the programme reveals what James May thinks we will lose if such changes really take hold. \\nProducer: Jonathan Brunert.
