Nobody freaks out over automobile deaths.

[Intermernet → kevin_thibedeau]

The entire car safety industry is a result of people freaking out over automobile deaths. Car safety is reactive. People die, friends /relatives /society freak out (justifiably) and the car industry responds. These responses are also debated and argued by the population (seatbelts, safety ratings, speed limits etc.)
