it's not safety, i mean, well, it is safety, at the cost of the poor sod that you crash into and fucking kill. Or the children that you're statistically more likely to run over and even more statistically likely to kill if you do hit them.

You know what else is safe? Not ramming your car into a brick wall.

I'm just talking about car safety for the first bit here, not even pedestrian impacts.
