>One way to reduce deaths is just get everyone into cars.

A patently absurd claim that holds up to no scrutiny whatsoever. The whole nation of the U.S disproves it, for one.

[globular-toast]

We have far better roads, vehicle testing and driver training than the US.

And do you have a better rate of fatality on the roads?

[graemep]

Yes, far lower. The US had approx 40,000 road deaths in 2024, the UK 1,600

Whether you divide that to get a per vehicle, per capita or a per mile travelled number its far, far lower.
