> If you want to stop 30,000 people from dying on the roads every year, don't allow multi-ton vehicles on the road.

Okay, but the idea here is to drop the deaths without impacting the economy so much that it will tank. Yes we could remove all large vehicles, but then people would starve and die anyway because they wouldn't get food to grocery stores fast enough, etc.
