    they literally banned pop-up headlights because of “pedestrian safety”. how about having a real driving school system instead of letting people drive if they pass the test after the 1200th time by random chance?

    i do agree that a multi-ton stainless steel bomb is dangerous, but cars are inherently dangerous. that’s just something that needs to be adressed by proper training and infrastructure that makes collisions less likely.

      I would love to make it more difficult for people to get (and keep!) a driver’s license, but I think we need to invest more in public transit first. Otherwise people will be stranded and unable to work, go to school, go to the store, etc. So many things require a car, and we need to get rid of that requirement first.
