More rules aren't going to fix the problem that more rules created. We need to reduce the amount of regulation on vehicles, specifically the CAFE regulations which are the driver behind large vehicles, and let the real market forces play out. Whenever governmental regulations get involved, the market forces are distorted to what the regulations incentivize, rather than what the people incentivize.

That’s literally the point of regulations and why civilization invented them.

You want to get rid of bad regulations, obviously. You really don’t want to get rid of all regulations.
