ppl just choose not to be responsible
you should look into some common causes of car accident, which include:
- rain
- night driving
- design defects
- ice
- snow
- tire blowouts
- fog full list
cars are safer than theyve ever been
overall, my position is the same as yours: the average driver is WILDLY unfit to operate a multiton chunk of metal on a daily basis.
however, it is wildy unrealistic to hope against hope that one day, every driving person will wake up and realize that they should drive safe. there has to be systemic effort, whether thats reduction in cars, increase in mandatory car training or increased access to public transport, in order to see systemic improvement.
i dont know a single child who has the same fears kids in movies do
