Cars are evil

[Zorak]

I was just browsing youtube for whatever took my fancy, and I saw this.

YouTube - Radiohead - Killer Cars

Now you can turn off the music if you want, that's not so important, although I think it's a pretty good track, it's the collage of road safety advertisements and videos that scares me the most.

I'm so glad I don't drive at times, from a cost perspective, and also from the idea that it's one of the few situations where your life is only partly in your hands... You can drive perfectly safely and still someone else can kill you and anyone else in the car....

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration there are about 43,000 people killed in fatal car accidents each year in the United States. Roughly, 40 percent of the fatal crashes are alcohol-related. In addition to fatal accidents, about 2.9 million people are injured each year.

Fuck...
