If you say I hate the automotive designers who can't design properly angled headlights, I'm criminalizing your shit take too

    Cars shouldn't be safe, they should be dangerous to the occupants in an accident to encourage paying fucking attention

        Thinking to small, put a spike on every steering wheel and you'd be assured people drive fucking carefully

      all vehicles are fitted with an ten-inch blade sticking out of the steering wheel toward the driver. everyone starts driving REALLY CAREFULLY

      42k deaths a year (14 per 100,000, or a lifetime risk of over 1 in 1000) doesn't seem to deter many people.

      Being disfigured, instead of dead, just might.

      Pedestrians & cyclists should be safe - if you hit one instead of airbags knife-bags deploy. That or ejector seats when applicable.

      Or both, in that order but with like a 5 second delay in between for comedic effect.
