fly

to move through the air using wings.
to be carried through the air by the wind or any other force or agency:

"Any other force or agency" such as a car's momentum

jump

to spring clear of the ground or other support by a sudden muscular effort; leap:

"muscular effort" cars don't make muscular effort.

Looks like flew was technically more accurate

Flew off a cliff and flew into the sky have very different connotations.
