The total U.S. deaths in the Vietnam war+ from 1950-1975 were 58,209 over 25 years time (from the time the first U.S. 'military advisors' and funding arrived to the end of the war). That's not far from our maximum _annual_ automotive deaths (54,589). In recent years, with better automotive safety, we're down to 37,461 per year, but clearly the conclusion is to outlaw automobiles since they're far more dangerous than war.
Especially since insurance is more likely to cover automotive death than death in war.
