Unless it decreases short-term fatalities.

Hello! Sorry I'm a bit confused by your reply, do you mean if it ONLY decreases short term ones and not long term?
I just mean there will be additional costs to the state if it means more people survive car crashes and therefore need medical care. But those costs might be outweighed if longer-term survivors tend to have less severe injuries.
