You can't really predict how a collision would happen and hence where you should land.

I'd say the best way to avoid collisions at scale is already on the road and its cars with sensors and computers, if we weren't living in a pre-cyberpunk dystopia I would gladly have them coordinate to achieve that

As a driver, that would be very hard, but the car could figure it out in a millisecond.

The "air rockets" could probably also be used as hard emergency brakes.
