On Christmas Day I was returning from Brampton via the motor vehicle. On the 401 I began to wonder how so many jack asses are still wandering this planet. It was raining and visibility at times restricted. It did not stop yahoos from tailgating or pretending they were in the Indy 500. Cars have gotten so "safe" that people think they can go full blast without a care in the world.
When I got home I read a timely story about a crash on the 400. A racing BMW rammed a SUV in the back at 200kmh. The occupants in the SUV were slightly injured and the arrested BMW driver not at all. How typical, the yahoos never get what they deserve. It is always the people that are just going about their business that are injured or killed- whether it be a taxi driver trying to eek out a living or a child using a crosswalk. Examples of two people killed by jerk offs this year.
It is high time that all of the safety equipment is removed from cars. Take away the ABS brakes, windshields, seatbelts, etc, etc. The streets would be a safer place.
Despite all of this safety equipment, the kill rate continues to climb. Drivers believe they are so indestructible that they take too many chances. The result being if drivers cannot kill themselves they end up killing more pedestrians and cyclists.

No, don't take away ALL of the safety features - make everyone in the car-coon wear a helmet!
