this a snippet from an article, see what you think:
to sum up it is about the safety initiatives put forward by car companies eg, volvo had sips, mercedes with about 17 airbags and audi with pre tensioners and shrinking steering columns (going back a few years)
"right now, people are quite happy to hurtle down the outside lane of a motorway at 100 mph in thick fog because their anti-lock brakes will keep them out of trouble - they'd better go too - and even if they dont everthing else will.
well, they'd think twice about driving fast or carelessly if the car was nothing more that a series of booby traps.
to make sure this was fair, and that all cars are equipped with the same menacing array of death traps, the government needs to introduce some legislation, but this wont happen because the government wants us to drive fast and dangerously.
they know if that if they ban seatbelts, rip down all crash barriers and douse the roads with a mixture of diesel oil and washing up liquid every morning, no-one will dare drive quicker than 10mph.
and this would remove one of the most iniquitious taxes ever dreamed up - the speeding ticket.
its all so obvious by forcing car makers to give us safer vehicles, and by making the roads less dangerous, we are encouraged to drive faster and faster. couple this with the ridiculous vigilant police patrols, and they have a small fortune.
people are dying out there, to pay for the National Health Service."
