I'm edging on hyperbole here but wanted to play Devil's Advocate. You can easily misconfigure a computer build and have it be part of a botnet that does substantial harm and potentially causing death. In fact, there are millions of people who have such computers.
Vehicles are dangerous to the few people around you, but a PC can be dangerous to millions.
