Killer Cars Scythe 16,000 Teens Aged 16-19 in Four Years-Ban Cars From Streets?

Fatalities from car accidents rose 13.5% inn the first quarter of 2012 and few to none are calling out to ban a major killer of Americans from the streets. Cars not only kill every day, they help kill tomorrow and next century with a profusion of global warming gasses. When will cars be restricted to just responsible philosophers and taken out of the hands of law breaking drivers going over the center line, keeping their tires under-inflated and driving with worn-down breaks?

Automobile deaths are a factor of social irresponsibility and federal highway financial contributions. In 2011 about 32 thousand were killed. In 1900 just  36 people were killed in the metal coffins. Plainly if the nation had gone with Robert Goddard's effort to construct an electro-magnetic subway from New York to Boston appx. 1905 the national prospectus might have turned out different.

The slaughter that took enough lives to be regarded as equal for undertakers to another interminable U.S. war might have been avoided. A profusion of e-mag tubes across the U.S.A. along with pedal powered soap box derby style cars might have helped cut down on fat and heart attack fatalities besides.

While 2011 had fewer traffic deaths in decades that was probably a consequence of the inability of Americans to afford gasoline and quality booze so they stayed at home. That changed in the first quarter of this year when the economy looked a little better. Two states even legalized marijuana smokin. Highway fatalities also dropped a lot during the second world war when gas was rationed and people had to work and go to war.

It takes years to build up good weapons proficiency with semi-automatic weapons of war and for reservists to keep it. Americans till age 60 may need to serve in some future national conflict and ought to be ready to go out and defend the nation when or if the large weapons systems for some reason just won't work. Auto driving can be learned by a monkey in 6 weeks and it is no loss to transition to green transport systems and stop the slaughter of Americans. Robots may be the only drivers allowed on U.S. streets in the future, yek that's dangerous in itself as Stephen King or some other writer has probably described already.
