This is roughly on par with gun deaths (which are ~2/3 suicides). Cars, not designed to kill people, kill roughly as many people per year in the USA as things designed to kill people. And if you want that feeling of freedom, ride a bicycle. Not as "powerful", but it surpasses the "extension of body" feeling in every way possible. That said, granted, the very layout of how people live in the usa is much different than in other countries. You guys have, compared to most of europe, vastly inflated distances between everything outside of city cores, making cars an evil necessity for society to keep functioning.
