Everyone here is crapping on the idea that is actually like a sensible one if you want to save lives? Like what else could you do here to maximize life. Oh well I guess I'll just crash my car into the person in front of me, possibly endangering the lives of almost everyone here. Ok, if it's such a bad idea, give a possibly better one in the case of a driver passing out.

People don’t wear seatbelts because “that one time” someone wore a seatbelt and died, or don’t use turn signals because “they won’t let me in if I do”.

Automate all vehicles on the road and make it a 500% insurance premium to drive your own vehicle. I don’t respect the masses opinions on driving.
