Every car safety post on HN has "guy who thinks 12k deaths is maybe not too bad." Thanks, guy! You really put things in perspective there.

Guy probably doesn't personally know any of those 12k...
I was simply suggesting that perhaps this level of overreach isn’t justified. Of course, any road death is regrettable.
Most every road death is the outcome of a poor decision made by a human. It's too much responsibility for many people, given the propensity to make choices that increase the chance of death and serious injury to others.
