I’m not sure basic transportation is unnecessary. Avoiding cars because they can crash is not realistic.

Driving with a dangerous combination of speed and distractedness/aggression/lack of skill is unnecessary. People all think they're driving safely even when they're not, because their dumb monkey brains get lulled into a false sense of security by years of coincidentally not crashing.

IMO the status quo is not remotely acceptable, and it's completely insane that we get so disproportionately pissed off whenever an immigrant or a police officer kills someone and completely ignore all the times car drivers kill people.
