The Laconic and the first half of the description appear to limit this to vehicles that can only be operated near the ground (e.g. "a low-flying vehicle"), but the last paragraph expands it to include "high-flying personal vehicles". This should be reconciled.

Low-flying examples:

[[AC:TabletopGames]]
* ''TabletopGame/{{Champions}}'' campaign "The Great Super Villain Contest". The Crimson Claw's servants ride hover scooters that can travel up to 72 m.p.h. while flying a few inches off the ground.

High-flying examples:

[[AC:{{Film}} - Animated]]
* ''WesternAnimation/HeavyMetal''. In the segment "Harry Canyon", the goons Rudnick sends to follow Harry's cab ride on flying devices that fly about 20 yards off the ground and presumably could go higher.

[[AC:{{Film}} - Live Action]]
* ''Film/JudgeDredd''. Dredd flies a Mark IV Lawmaster (Improved Model), which is a flight-capable version of the standard Lawmaster motorcycle. The members of the Council's guards fly similar vehicles while pursuing him.

[[AC:TabletopGames]]
* ''TabletopGame/{{Traveller}}'', ''Journal of the Travellers' Aid Society'' #14 article "Civilian Vehicles for ''Striker''". The Grav Cycle looks like a motorcycle with skids instead of wheels. It's fusion powered and can fly at up to 2,000 kilometers per hour.
