Are you suggesting that governments shouldn’t require safety features because car manufacturers might implement them badly?

The EPA push for fuel efficiency made it easier to hit targets by selling huge trucks instead of small cars.

There is a value in safety regulation but the incentives as legislated have led to negative results. It needs to be fixed or repealed. Not sure there's a clean solution here.

Not only huge trucks, but all vehicles got larger.
